The Painting Pros, Inc.
I responded to a coupon offer d=for the painting of a single room. Clive, of The Painting Pros came to my home and discussed the project with me. Since the coupon required me to provide the paint, Clive told me the quantity needed and gave paint specification suggestions. I purchased the paint on a Saturday and the room was painted the following Monday. The painter arrived right on schedule, did an excellent job of painting the room. The needed paint estimate was correct and the room looks great

The painting went very well. When painting the exterior railings, the paint bubbled up, but they came back right away and redid the job.

Brannick and Associates Painting Services
We had a wonderful experience with Brannick and Associates Painting Services. Patrick is very responsive. The team was extremely efficient and finished our interior painting project quickly. The work is some of the best that we have seen. We will definitely reach out to them again in the future when we have a painting project

INNOVATION PAINTING
.Daniel was very personalbe, responsive and professional. Because the room I wanted to paint had old oil-based paint throughout, we had to find a compatible product, so the paint was expensive. Two coats of paint required more than the half day I had allotted to paint the room, so there was an extra charge. All in all, however, I was extremely happy with the job Daniel performed and will definitely use him again when I paint the rest of my house

Brian Duff Painting
I have worked with Brian on a number of both interior and exterior painting projects for my clients. Working in real estate, you need to make sure things are done professionally, on a strict timeline and with great customer service. Brian and his team never disappoint. Always going above and beyond. He is great and would recommend him for any job

ALPHA & OMEGA PAINTING COMPANY
Manuel, Price and work was great, he patched prep and primed, painted. Only one thing I asked him to Kelly Moore paint, because I like Kelly Moore and selected my colors there. he purchased all the paint at home depot instead. The room and painting looked good overall so no biggy that he did not use Kelly Moore Paint. What I did like is that he was the only willing to prime prior to painting, everyone said no need as paint has primer mixed in. We all know for best results you need and should prime before painting. Overall good experience

- Louise S.
MASTERCRAFT CUSTOM INTERIORS
Scott was great! I hired Scott to paint the inside of my condo before I moved in. The work was executed really well, and he was very easy to work with. Aside from painting, he also went above and beyond in fixing some holes and a section of peeled back wall surface that looked pretty bad before he got started. My condo looks great now, and I would absolutely recommend Mastercraft for interior painting work
- Daniel L.
AMAZING CESAR'S PAINTING
He did a good job and took risks in climbing and painting tricky high walls and ceiling. Do hire him for any paint job.
- Saranya A.
A+ Painting
George did an excellent job. The house is large with very high ceilings. He painted all the walls, ceilings, trim, doors and the inside of the window sills. There were multiple colors and he painted all the rooms correctly. The cut lines and paint along the baseboards are all excellent without paint bleeding onto other areas. We had a tight time frame to get the painting done before we moved in and George was very responsive and started and finished the project on time. We would definitely recommend him
- James H.
Indigo Painting
I can't say enough about Indigo Painting. I received a call from the owner-operator, Omar, and he agreed to give me an estimate on painting my mother's home, which was quite the eyesore. After he reviewed the property, he contacted me and said, "It just needs TLC". Omar quoted me an affordable rate, and a date was set. Omar and his team did a remarkable job. Omar is a great craftsmen; he has a great personality, and he is very professional. I would recommend Indigo Painting to All my family, friends, and to a complete stranger. Thank you Angi for sending Indigo Painting, Omar, to me and my family

Similar to Interior Painters
How much does the typical interior paint job near me cost?
The typical cost of an 800-square-foot home is between $500 to $3,500, with a larger home (1,600 square feet) running $1,300 to $6,000. The square footage of your home is the most important aspect in pricing an interior paint job.
What are the factors affecting cost near me?
Several additional factors affect the price paid to trained professionals to prepare a room, clean the surface, prime if necessary and apply two coats of high-quality interior paint:
- Wall height — More work is involved in reaching cathedral ceilings and high walls
- Regional differences — Tight labor markets and high demand in your nearby area can drive prices up or down
- Designer paints or name brands — Generic or store brands may only cost $20 a gallon; designer brands can run $60 a gallon or higher
- Painters can choose to charge by the square foot (very common, with a range of $2 to $6 per square foot) or by the hour, with ranges of $20 to $50 per hour.
How much do painters near me charge per room?
Expect to pay $500 to $800 per room. Reach out to three interior painting pros in your area to find a more precise price range.
Some professional painters will charge by the square footage and take into account any needed repairs (wall dents and dings).
Do painters do drywall repair?
Yes - most drywall repairs within the painters' scope will cost around $75, but may run higher depending on the amount of damage needing repair. More substantial damage may mean you need a drywall contractor before the painters perform their work.
How much does it cost to paint ceilings?
Expect to pay between $200 and $300 for a painted ceiling. Your home has an eight-foot ceiling? Congratulations; you will pay less than the homeowner who needs the living room's cathedral ceiling repainted. Painters may charge per-square-foot costs, but the unit cost is higher for the harder-to-reach ceiling.
How much does it cost to paint doors?
This could be labor intensive, so expect to pay between $75 and $100 per door. You will be very pleased with the results. The mark of a professional is in the details. Most amateurs paint doors in place. Professionals seldom do. The door is removed, hardware stripped, surface prepared, and the door painted.
How much does molding and trim cost to paint?
Average costs for two rooms will be around $1,100. Among the hardest home areas to paint well, wood trim and molding tests the steadiness of every painter's hand. Your costs will vary depending on how much molding will be painted.
Many homes today have no crown molding (at the top of the ceiling). Others have crown molding up high and chair rail (about waist high, to prevent chairs from cracking the plaster) as well as baseboard. Some homes have clam-shell baseboard; others have ogee molding, toe and base cap molding.
What other factors in my area should I expect?
Lead paint removal could be the biggest factor in pre-1978 homes and will add to repainting costs. Lead paint legally cannot be ignored, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). When professional painters encounter lead in your home, you need to work with certified removal experts before painting can continue.
EPA's Lead Resource Center for Homeowners, Painting Companies & Consumers
Another exceptional factor is environmental impact. Concerns over toxins in paints, environmental impact, and the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released into breathable air may have you turning to "green" paints:
- Milk paint
- Earth pigments and natural tinting agents
- Recycled paint
How do can I find an interior painter near me?
The interior painters on this page have been reviewed by neighbors near you. The reviews and grades are free - we can also connect you quickly with three quality pros. Read online reviews to make sure they are the best fit for your project. Other professional contractors could also recommend nearby interior painters:
- Real estate agents
- Builders
- Interior designers
Remember get at least three bids for any major repainting work. Check out licensing and insurance, read online reviews, and read customer testimonials. Most professional painters also maintain galleries of finished jobs. We love our homes, but eventually we tire of the same four walls. Interior painting by professionals could be the facelift your home needs. Most homeowners want to transform a room, not the entire interior. A teenager moves on to college; the room needs fresh paint!
