We recently bought a home in bay area and are planning to paint it but not sure about the costs. Its a 3 bedroom 2 bath 1200 sqft home. Any recommendations on contractors? How much does it cost? Any suggestions? Few contractors quoted between $6000-9000. Is it really that expensive?
Why ask here? Find a company to give you an estimate. It’s a thing.
Ok, that was helpful.
Very high , do it on your own..... Even if it's 90% of what they would do , you will appreciate it more plus save some $$. You have time , take it easy and enjoy home ownership.
Seriously?
I'll paint it for $4k if you fly me out.
Have you tried to find ones from Nextdoor? Good and affordable guys don't run websites or Yelp pages.
We painted two rooms, and one wall in living room, some touch ups cost us $1800
Sounds about right for SF. We have a smaller condo 2bd 2bth and the quote was already 5k
Buy sherwin williams and diy
Benjamin Moore's Aura is better than the top of the line paint from Sherwin. I tried both and the cleaning ability +coverage+color +finish on Benjamin was really good. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. It's just paint.
Interesting. So Benjamin Moore is better than Sherwin wrt cleaning? We have pets so was looking something which is easy to clean. Good to know. Thanks mate!
Do it yourself, under 1k.
Thats an option i am considering. But not sure of the costs if I hire professionals and is it worth it.
They will cost significantly more, take longer, and do a significantly worse job. Paint is easy and fun. If you want to pay jump in yelp and message 5 to 10 highly rated companies to get quotes. Paying a neighbor kid is good too if you aren't in a rush
