"I am new in NY and I had lot of work to be done in my backyard. I need to put concrete flooring, removed old fence, put new fence and add a Gazebo. I got lot of quotes from other Home Advisor contacts but A and J quoted the best and no bargaining. A and J was very professional, no back and forth change in plans, cleaned after work. Due to sudden plans I had to leave the town early and he made sure he put more men and finished work earlier than he promised. Apart from the backyard work, since it is a new house I had lot of other minor work like electricity panels, sheet work, painting and tree cutting. This company has crew in all fields and got the job done quickly at fair price. My backyard looks completely different now and it was done within the estimate provided by the company. Excellent work, professional, reasonable cost!! Definitely will hire again in future for any construction related work."

What Are the Rates of Contracting a Pro Painting Company?
The average price of paint services for a home is $1.50 to $4 per square foot depending on a variety of components. Among the largest factors is the total surface area that requires paint. A bigger residence or room with more area to paint needs more time and materials, which drives up the price.
Why Height Ups Residential Painting Prices
Whenever paint teams have to paint higher areas on a house to complete services, the total can go up. This is because paint teams must put up scaffolding and use ladders and other equipment to reach taller areas. That’s more manual labor, which increases costs. Some contractors may also pay workers a premium to account for riskier services.
When painters must work above 8 feet, for example, the cost can go up by 30%, on average. Jobs that need working above 19 feet can raise prices by around 120%.
Other Components That Impact House Painting Service Costs
Overall size and height aren’t the only components that may determine price. Location makes a big difference, as painting jobs cost more or less determined on the state and city you’re in. The choice of paint also impacts price, as high-end or premium paint costs more. If employees must perform more repair or prep work than anticipated, such as double priming over a dark wall or replacing rotten siding boards, the cost can also rise.
A good way to ascertain what your house painting gig might cost is to get prices from potential painting pros in Brooklyn.
What Are Typical Services a Painting Company Provides?
Home painters do much more than paint your walls or exterior siding with a new color. Some painting contractors may add accent walls or add creative exhibits, for instance, and some might also provide pressure washing services for outdoor siding.
The Most common services residential painting contractors provide include:
- Painting inside walls. All interior paint companies paint interior walls, typically in shades of your selecting. Question whether a business works with scaffolding if you have cathedral ceilings or other high walls, as not all businesses engage in those kinds of jobs.
- Painting interior ceilings, baseboards, and other surfaces. Many interior painting professionals paint molding, baseboards, ceilings, and other inner layout surfaces as desired.
- Creative or decorative painting. Some painting businesses do accent walls with specific painting ministrations, like marbling or feathering. A couple might also provide stenciling or mural projects to increase the beauty of walls.
- Exterior painting. Outside painting professionals paint outer surfaces and walls like fascia or eaves. Don’t presume that a business does both inner and outdoor painting—always ask to ensure both jobs are included if you plan to contract the same company to paint the interior and exterior of your home.
Giving as many specifics about your potential job as you can helps painting professionals in Brooklyn determine if they might be right for the job and provide an accurate estimate.
Frequently asked questions
Painters usually price a job by the square feet of the project. Sometimes they’ll include flat fees for fixed expenses, like overhead and permits.
We make finding a painter easy. Simple use our directory to find a painter. Here you can browse local pros, check their reviews and do your first screening without ever having to call. We’ve also prescreened all the pros for you, to give you peace of mind.
Interior painting makes for a doable DIY project. You can save some money and get a real sense of accomplishment by doing this yourself. And, with the right prep work – covering, taping and scraping – it’s fairly forgiving. But it takes a lot of time to move furniture, tape trim, prep the surface and cover your floor, let alone apply the actual paint. Instead, save yourself the time and hassle and find a local interior painter.
Leave exterior painting to the pros. Not only do you need to worry about the type and quality of the paint, you’ll also likely need a ladder and considerably more prep work. You’ll likely need additional equipment like ladders, scaffolding and possibly a paint sprayer. It’s almost cheaper to just hire a pro. Talk to a local exterior house painter about your project.
- Do your research. Understand what to expect and what to look for in a pro. Look at paint types, prices and costs.
- Interior home painting costs $1,000-$2,800
- Exterior painting costs $1,700-$4,100
- Painting a ceiling costs $150-$350
- Painting cabinets costs $350-$1,200
- Trim painting costs $500-$1,500
- Calculate paint coverage
- Call pros for site inspections and estimates. Always get three to five estimates.
- Check references, compare quotes, look at past work. After you have estimates in hand, do one final pass to compare the contractors.
- Sign a contract with the pro of your choice. You might need to make a down payment, usually 25% to 50% of the total project cost to cover material costs, but not all pros require this. Don’t pay for the entire project upfront.
- A complete inspection. Each pro takes a walk around your home to evaluate the condition of your current paint, the size of the job and any obstacles for accessing the site. They do this to see how much prep work they’ll need and estimate how long the job will take. The more thorough the inspection, the more accurate the quote.
- Color consultation. Expect each contractor to have varying color options and suggestions. However, you have the final say.
- Listen to the pro – they’re experts after all – but don’t get pushed into a color combination or finish type that you don’t want. Understand the different exterior paints or interior paint choices before your pro arrives.
- A rough estimate or complete quote. Finishing contractors vary here. Usually, they can quote straightforward projects on the spot. But some may need to take it back to their shop to run numbers and give you a detailed estimate with costs broken out. Neither method is better than the other, but just make sure to get multiple quotes.
- How long have you been in business? A long business history helps you avoid shoddy companies. It’s hard for a service business to stay in business if they don’t do good work.
- Are you licensed and insured? Not all states require a license for painting homes, but many do. Always use one that’s insured.
- Do you belong to any professional organizations? You’ll find many online, like the Painting Contractors Association or the Finishing Contractors Association?
- Do you have other work I can look at? Always check a portfolio or, in the case of painters, it’s better to look at work they did a few years ago to see how well it’s held up.
- How long will the job take? Get a rough estimate but get it in writing.
- How many people are in your crew? This is especially important if you work remotely. More people generally means more noise, but they’ll be done faster.
- Will I be in the way if I’m home during the painting? You usually won’t be in the way, but this question helps you understand what to expect while they’re working. They’ll need to lay down coverings and do a lot of prep work.
- Do you guarantee your work? Never hire a painter who doesn’t guarantee their work. This often means they’ll rush the prep work, since peeling never happens right away.
- What type of paint do you use, and how long is it rated to last? Different rooms need different paint and the exterior needs exterior paint. It comes in different grades with different guaranteed lifetimes.
- Can you supply a written estimate and contract? Never use a painter who isn’t willing to put his work in writing.
