These are some of the key factors that influence the cost of painting your home’s interior.
1. The number of surfaces being painted. For example, are we painting walls, trim, doors, crown molding, or an accent wall?
2. The condition of the surfaces. If surfaces have many dings, scratches, or holes, we will need additional labor to fill, sand, and prepare them. Specialty situations, such as horsehair plaster or wallpaper removal, can also affect the price.
3. Wall height. It affects labor, access, and equipment needs. Painting an 8-foot ceiling is more straightforward than painting a 16-foot foyer, which requires additional time, materials, and specialized access equipment.
4. The choice of color. Changing to a much darker or lighter color may require additional coats of paint to fully cover the existing surface. In general, we quote one coat when the new color is the same as or similar to the current color. Two or even three coats may be needed when changing to a very different color, such as painting a gray wall brown.
Sample pricing based on typical room sizes in the Katy area.
This guide provides planning ranges for typical residential interiors in the Katy area; it is not a project estimate. Your final price will depend on room dimensions, surface condition, access, preparation requirements, paint selection, color changes, and the total scope of work. A written estimate will confirm the surfaces, preparation, number of coats, products, and exclusions for your project.
The following ranges show typical pricing for common room sizes in Katy-area homes.
What these price ranges assume:
- All wall prices are based on two coats of paint.
- All ceiling, trim, and door prices assume one refresh coat using a solid mid-grade paint from a recognized manufacturer. Trim includes baseboards, door frames, crown molding, and wainscoting.
- Each room range starts with painting the walls. Pricing for ceilings, trim, doors, and other listed surfaces is then added according to the scope of the project.
- Each price range includes standard preparation for the surfaces being painted, such as addressing ordinary minor imperfections before painting. Repairs or preparation beyond standard conditions may increase the price. The final estimate may also vary based on the number of rooms and surfaces included in the project.
- We recommend a quality mid-grade paint, such as Sherwin-Williams Duration Home or Benjamin Moore Regal. A durable paint can provide better coverage and longer service life, which may reduce repainting costs over time.
