I just bought my first house, and would like some of my interior rooms painted. I received my first quote and I am not sure how fair the price is.
Notes: There is no furniture in the house, its empty and will be when the work is performed. Also, the paint will be provided so the contractor does not have to purchase paint, but will be responsible for his own brushes, drop cloths, and masking tape.
For example: (1) Paint ceiling 1301 sqft, two coats $1100. (2) Prime rooms that need it, paint interior , two coats $1500 (3) Paint all door trim, window jams and trim, base, two coats - $1050
Room sizes are
1 - 23x12 2 - 13x9 (Needs Primer) 3 - 13x11 (Needs primer) 4 - 18x11 (Needs Primer) 5 - 19x13 6 - 9x5Does that seem like fair prices? I am not trying to be cheap, but I have learned the hard way (i.e. paying almost $300 to replace the thermostat in my car).
Thanks Amy!
