"Here is the deal. If you are looking for a professional who treats you like family...Keith Horton is the man! Within 5-minutes of meeting Keith I knew we were going to do business with his fine company. We talked about 3 different projects. 1st project was to take our 1972 Living Room down to studs and bring it into 2019. Wood paneling was removed, a bar area was removed, bookshelves removed, new walls were installed, doors were moved and he created more space for the master closet that used to be the bar area, plumbing work was accomplished, electrical work, can lighting installed, new ceiling installed, trimmed out everything, primed and painted to finish . From demo to finished product in 3-weeks! Every day the work area was cleaned up and he did everything possible to keep the dust spreading to other parts of the home. Outstanding job and could not ask for anything more. 1st project complete. Next he is going to build a screened in porch off of the living room. The 3rd project is to build my 24 x 30 detached garage. Keith...thank you for everything and know we will do business again real soon."

Common Services Painting Professionals Offer
Not all home painters perform all types of house painting, so it’s important to understand what services are on offer and who you might go to for those services. Some residential painters might only paint the outdoors of houses, while others might specialize in interior painting. Some may only perform decorative efforts, such as adding decorative accent walls or murals to spaces.
A lot of residential painting professionals do interior wall painting. At its most basic, these services consist of priming and painting walls, incorporating edgework, to ensure a professional-looking finish. Some businesses might also paint ceilings, molding, and baseboards, but it’s important to ask and not assume.
Businesses that offer exterior home painting jobs paint the exterior of houses, including siding, brick, and other surfaces. Check with a business to make sure it will paint specialty areas if your home has them.
If you’re searching for a bit more creativity, you might want a business that does stenciling or other decorative painting. This specialty service might decrease the number of contractors you may work with and raise the cost. It’s especially important that you look at a painter’s portfolio to comprehend if they can do decorative work you’ll be happy with.
Providing as many details about your potential project as you can helps painting companies in Virginia Beach decide if they might be right for the service and offer an accurate estimate.
How Much Do Pro Painters Charge?
The sort of painting services, preferred brand or type of paint, and measurements of the surface needing paint all factor into how much interior or outside paintwork might set you back. Painting over rough materials —for instance brick—or dark colors that may need more than one coat can cost more than painting over pastel or smooth areas.
Typically, interior residential painting jobs comes to about about $3.50 per square foot. Outside house painting comes to $1.50 to $4 per square foot, on average.
Some other factors that can change the total of residential painting services include:
- Paint type and quality. Paint is not all priced evenly, and selecting a pricier type of paint evidently increases the total cost.
- Preparatory services necessary. If painting professionals must prime walls or repair exterior boards or siding before they paint, the cost usually goes up.
- State. The prices for all services and goods alter depending on your state and location, and painting jobs are no different.
- Height. If painting employees must put up scaffolding or use other equipment to reach tall areas to paint, the cost can rise by up to 120%. The cost goes up as the height increases, so homes with multiple stories or cathedral ceilings are likely to cost more to paint than a single-story home.

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.
