How much should I budget for contractors to paint internally a 4 bed house ( well maintained) ?

My best advice is to call a local painting store. Prices vary so much in different areas. You can get a general idea of what the going rate is. If you cannot paint yourself, try knocking off some of the price and move furniture, take down outlet covers and even tape if they are rolling. Sometimes prep is one main expense.
I would go for $300 per room, if no obstacles in the room


tape in covering floor molding or trims are usually not part of estimate given for flat walls no custom paint mixing.
2-3 days/room at 100-150 quid/day.





Plus materials. Extra if wooden windows
Allow $5,000
