What it costs

What house painters charge, and why the range is so wide.

These are the ranges most homeowners land in nationally. Your city page has the local number, because labor cost is the single biggest variable and it swings by more than double between markets.

Interior, whole home

$2,000 – $6,000
Walls, ceilings and trim. Rooms with high ceilings, heavy patching or wallpaper removal push toward the top.

Exterior, whole home

$3,000 – $8,000
Driven by stories, siding material and how much prep the surface needs. Stucco repair and rotted wood are the usual surprises.

Interior and exterior together

$5,000 – $12,000
Usually cheaper than booking the two separately, because the crew mobilizes once.

Four things move a painting quote more than anything else: square footage, the condition of the surface, the number of stories, and what labor costs in your market. That is why an honest painter will not give you a price over the phone before seeing the property.

Before you hire

Five things to check on any painter.

  • Licensing where it is required. Some states, California among them, require a contractor license for painting work above a dollar threshold. Others, Florida included, do not require a state painting license, though the city or county may require registration. Ask what applies where you live and ask to see it.
  • General liability insurance, and proof of it. Ask for a certificate of insurance with your name on it. A painter who cannot produce one in a day is telling you something.
  • Workers compensation coverage. If someone falls off a ladder on your property and the company has no coverage, the exposure can land on your homeowners policy.
  • A written estimate with the prep spelled out. Surfaces included, number of coats, patching, caulking, priming, the paint product and finish, the schedule and the payment terms.
  • Reviews with photos, and recent ones. A company with fifty reviews from three years ago and nothing since has changed, and usually not for the better.

Red flags

When to keep looking

  • A firm price quoted over the phone, before anyone has seen the property
  • A large deposit demanded up front. Many states cap what a contractor can take before starting
  • Cash only, or a price that drops sharply if you skip the paperwork
  • No written scope, just a number on a text message
  • Pressure to decide today, or a discount that expires at the door
  • A bid far below every other bid. Something was left out, and it is almost always the prep

Questions worth asking

What to ask at the estimate.

The answers separate a company that repaints for a living from someone who bought a sprayer last year.

How do you prep?

You want to hear washing, patching, caulking and priming named specifically, not "we take care of it".

How many coats, and what paint?

Two coats is the standard for a color change or a weathered exterior. The product and finish should be written down.

Who is actually on my property?

Employees or subcontractors, and whether the same crew stays through the whole job.

What is not included?

The honest answer is never "nothing". Rotted wood, stucco repair and wallpaper removal are the usual exclusions.

What happens if it rains?

Exterior paint will not cure in rain, high wind or extreme temperature. You want to know how they reschedule.

What is the warranty?

Get the length and what it covers in writing. Peeling and blistering within the first year is a workmanship question, not a paint question.

How it works

One request. A painter at your door.

01

Tell us about the property

Interior or exterior, property type, how many stories, and the ZIP code. Thirty seconds on the form.

02

A local company visits

A licensed, insured painting company that serves your address comes out, measures and checks the surfaces. The visit is free.

03

You get a firm number

A written price before anything starts. Approve it and they schedule the work, or walk away. No obligation either way.

GoCraft Painters is free for homeowners. We are paid by the painting companies in our network for the estimate appointments we schedule for them. We do not perform the work and we do not set the price: the estimate, the price and the job are the licensed company’s, and the decision to hire is yours. Full terms.

Where we work

Painters by city.

Painting is a local job. Climate, construction type and labor cost change the price and the prep from one city to the next, so every city page is written for that market.
