Painting cost

Sep 06, 2007 8 Replies

What is the going rate to spray paint approximately 1800 square feet of previously painted textured/popcorn ceiling? I know this varies by area, but just trying to get ballpark figure before getting actual estimates.



Thanks

Which ballpark? Yankee Stadium or some Little League ballpark? Call up a few of your local ballparks, and get a true cost.

how many rooms?does the painter have to move furniture or is the house empty?how high are the ceilings?i would put it at about 1500.00 with parts.if it was my house i would get the popcorn scraped off and go with a nice hock and trow texture,then paint.looks better and easier to maintain.good luck

What about walls, does he have to run tape and plastic, what ballpark, NYC or some area of low labor costs. Just get quaified bids and dont ask here

plus tax.

Well shnit!

The first estimate was $1651. WTF!

CALL A PAINTER you stupid IDIOT. How the hell is someone on a newsgroup supposed to know the rates in your area. You're a MORON.

Do you know how to use a telephone and phone book? If not learn how, then use them......

Make up your mind...is he an idiot or a moron? Are you sure he isn't an imbecile?

Do your research next time!
