We're also impatient because finding time right now is a nightmare and we really want to wrap up a bunch of little projects instead of living through them any longer. With that said we were looking at getting quotes for living room, main hall and upstairs hall. Nothing crazy it's a small house. Anyone know the going rate what painters charge to do this if we supply the paint? It would also be easy because baseboard would be removed and all window trim in the living room.

Painted my last 2 houses, 2 of my neighbours, my buddies and his parents. He's not some scumbag though. Older dude, semi retired, just does it for extra cash I think. Painted my whole house, about 2000sq/ft for $1600 plus paint.

furball furball Post Master Sr Registered: 09/24/03 Posts: 9488 Loc: Toronto, ON	I'm actually thinking of doing all this myself to my home $\:\\|$ Currently have the ghetto starter paint on the walls, and the smudges and scuffs are starting to bug the fuck outta me. Biggest headache would be how to do the walls along the staircase (15' high? Something like that) And the usual drop cloths, taping, moving furniture, etc.

titty sprinkles titty sprinkles Post Master Supreme Registered: 08/22/05 Posts: 17212 Loc: Toronto,Ontario	when i bought my house there was a week between when i closed and when i had to be out of the condo. i didn't have time with work and kid to paint the place so i paid this jew guy to paint the entire house, well main floor and upstairs including all the bathrooms for $1500. also i wanted a mint job, no paint splatters and clean taping lines and all that. he did a good job but he kept calling me back asking me for more work, i was thinking about having him do the trim but he wanted like another$1000. eff that.
