Estimating the Cost of an Interior Paint Job

Putting on a fresh coat of paint to spruce up the interior is a popular human pastime and a terrific way to reduce tension. First-time house painters may have trouble estimating costs, but this video should assist. Before generating an estimate, it is critical to visit the project site to determine the labor cost, projected time, prerequisites, and other essentials.

Include the square footage of the interior space that needs painting and the paint brand in your quote. The price per gallon of paint ranges from $15 to $80. The paint type, the amount needed, and whether you qualify for a discount, could bring the cost to between $35 and $45. At the current wage rate, each hour of labor will set you back $20. Think about how long it will take to finish the project, how big the space is, and how many painters you'll need to hire when making your estimate. Generally, marketing budgets shouldn't go over 10% of the total project cost. Therefore, advertising for a job that pays $1,000 shouldn't cost more than $100. If you are a startup, a markup of 30% is sufficient. Expert house painters may increase the markup by as much as 50%.
