How Painting Costs Are Calculated
Painting costs depend on several factors: total square footage to be painted, number of coats needed, surface condition and prep work required, height and accessibility of surfaces, type and quality of paint selected, and whether special finishes are requested. We factor all of these into your estimate so the price is accurate and complete.
