Areas Of Expertise: Painting
"Prime Time painters have completely transformed our home, inside and out! They painted the interior, exterior, decks, boat dock, pool deck and a very difficult spiral staircase. They even removed wall paper! They were professional at all times, arrived on time and you can't beat the price. They assisted me with color choices too. This was a very detailed, difficult painting job because our home has 20 foot vaulted ceilings, a lot of trim and beams that needed staining. The homes in my neighborhood are very close to each other so they also had to use care not to spray the neighbors homes or plants, which they did flawlessly. They are the best!"

How Much Do Home Painting Companies Charge?
The sort of painting job, preferred brand or sort of paint, and measurements of the area needing paint all impact how much interior or outside paintwork might set you back. Painting over uneven materials —for instance brick—or dark colors that might need numerous coats can cost more than painting over pastel or flat areas.
On average, interior house painting services comes to about about $3.50 per square foot. Exterior home painting comes to $1.50 to $4 per square foot, usually.
Height can increase the price of your painting project. For exterior painting, services that necessitate working more than 8 feet can come to 30 percent more, while services that necessitate working above 19 feet can total 120 percent more. The additional price is usually because of paint companies using scaffolding and paying employees more for the increased danger.
Other elements in how much interior or outside residential painting total include:
- Location. Like other services and goods, house painting is more costly in some regions, states, and localities.
- Needed prep work. The more painting contractors must do to get your interior or home exterior prepped for paint, the more the job may cost.
- Paint quality. More expensive paint typically leads to higher overall costs for your project.

What Are Some Common Things You Can Hire a Painting Company to Do?
Residential painters do a whole lot more than cover your walls or exterior siding with a new color. Some painting companies might create accent walls or create decorative flourishes, for instance, and some might also offer pressure washing services for outdoor siding.
Standard services house painting professionals provide include:
- Painting interior walls. All interior paint businesses paint interior walls, typically in shades of your choosing. Ask whether a contractor utilizes scaffolding if you have high walls or cathedral ceilings, since not all businesses engage in those sorts of work.
- Painting interior ceilings, baseboards, and other surfaces. Many interior painting businesses paint molding, baseboards, ceilings, and other interior structure surfaces as needed.
- Decorative or creative painting. Some painting professionals do accent walls with specific painting ministrations, like marbling or feathering. A few may also provide mural or stenciling projects to up the beauty of walls.
- Exterior painting. Outside painting contractors paint exterior surfaces and walls like eaves or fascia. Do not presume that a contractor does both inner and exterior painting—always question to guarantee both services are covered if you intend to employ the same company to paint the interior and outside of your residence.
Reaching out to potential painting contractors in Tampa is the best way to learn if they may provide the work you need. Offering as many details as you can about your goals and preferences for the painting project may also help contractors give you the most 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.
