So you want to get some interior painting done? Painting is a great way to add value to your home and keep it looking fresh and new!
I’m writing this blog in mid-September, so it’s a perfect time to start planning for your interior painting projects, so that they can be all finished before the holiday season is upon us!
How much should I budget for the painting of my interior? It depends on a few factors:
- How many rooms do you want to paint?
- What areas in those rooms do you want painted? Just the walls? The ceiling and the walls? Or ceiling, walls and trim?
- What is the level of complexity of the project? Rooms with vaulted ceilings take longer to paint than rooms with standard 8′ or 9′ ceilings. Detailed trim also takes longer to paint than a more simple profile trim.
- What is the level of preparation required? Are there quite a few cracks to fill? Are there some uneven walls? Damaged walls sometimes require up to 3 layers of patch to make smooth, which takes time and adds to the cost.
Let me give you a price range to think about:
I just recently completed a fairly simple and straightforward 2000 sq ft house for $4000 plus tax.
I’ve also done work on a larger 5000 sq ft home with vaulted ceilings, awkward stairwells, and some other detailed trim work which came to over $15 000 plus tax.
