Frequently Asked Questions
CertaPro Painters® of Portland, OR
How do I get an estimate for painting my home?
The most accurate way to get pricing is through an in-person evaluation. Phone quotes often miss key details like surface condition, prep requirements, and accessibility. To begin, request your free estimate online. Our team will schedule a visit and provide a detailed proposal tailored to your project.
How much does it cost to paint a house?
Painting costs vary depending on several factors:
- Size and number of stories
- Surface condition and prep work
- Type and quality of paint
- Accessibility and complexity
We don’t want to misquote, so please request a no-obligation, on-site estimate for the most accurate pricing breakdown.
What factors affect the price of a painting project?
Beyond square footage, pricing is influenced by:
- Surface preparation such as scraping, caulking, and priming
- Paint type and finish (matte, satin, gloss)
- Labor rates in the Portland area
- Project complexity like vaulted ceilings or intricate trim
To get a clear breakdown, we recommend scheduling an on-site estimate.
How do I find a reliable house painter?
