Naturally, the quality of the paint job you are seeking will affect the asking price, sometimes dramatically. For example, when contracting a professional paint service, you can expect the best of the best in terms of quality of the paint as well as the painters themselves. The finished project should look nothing short of amazing. On the flip side, if you get a bargain-priced paint service, you should expect bargain-level results.

Though a white shirt and a yellow shirt may carry the same price tag in a department store, paint color does not work in the same fashion. Color affects the price, and standard colors like black, gray, and white are much cheaper than specialized colors. Furthermore, you should expect to pay more if you choose rare colors used by premium automakers.

Don't forget about finishes! Many car painting services will offer to wax or seal your car's paint job at the conclusion of the project. A regular wax finish won't run you too much, but will probably add another $100 to $200 to the final price tag. If you want the auto body service to use a ceramic coating or other, more specialized finishes, you can expect to pay even more.

A basic paint job for a sedan-sized vehicle that doesn't include any additional features, like racing stripes or high-quality wax, can be purchased for around $500 depending on the auto body shops in your area. A more complete paint job, which includes multiple coats of paint and basic wax, will probably cost $1000 or so for a similar car. If you want a truck painted with high-quality, manufacturer-exclusive paint and a ceramic coating, don't be surprised if the price tag reaches $5000 or higher.

Maybe your taste has changed, your paint has chipped or you need a vehicle refresh. No matter the reason, painting your vehicle can be an expensive endeavor. However, the expense may be a wise investment.

For older vehicles, the cost of a professional paint job may be excessive. In these cases, you may wish to try painting the vehicle yourself. The necessary materials are widely available from hardware and automotive stores for as little as $200. Your only other costs are in time and effort.

One of the biggest concerns with a DIY project is finding a location to paint the vehicle. Many professional painting and body shops have climate-controlled booths designed to limit the amount of dust and dirt that might come into contact with the paint and ruin the finish. For a DIY project, your best option is to paint the vehicle in a clean, well-ventilated garage.

Cheap paint jobs may also have poor taping techniques that will result in overspray on your windows or rubber fixtures. The quote may not include certain services that the auto painters charge as an additional rate, meaning they may choose to paint over problems like rust or dents rather than taking the steps to address those issues first.

Before committing to a service, ask the painters what steps and details their price covers. Check if sanding and preparing the bodywork is part of the cost and ask to look at previous examples of their work to make sure that you are happy with the quality.

What about express paint services that offer to repaint your vehicle around $500 to $1000? To put it nicely, express paint services are low-quality. Express paint services use discount paint and offer one color. Most express paint service jobs will not last as long as a high-quality wrap and are not recommended.

Have you ever walked back to your car from the grocery store only to notice someone has gouged your paint with a shopping care?

When painters estimate a job they account for two main factors: labor and materials. Labor often makes up 80% to 85% of the cost of a paint job, so understanding how a professional painter calculates their rate will help you better estimate the cost of your project.

The most common way to be charged for a paint job is by the square foot of wall space to be painted. Most painters charge $2 to $6 per square foot for interior jobs including two coats of paint. If you choose to have the window and door trims, moldings, and doors painted that number will increase a bit.

For exterior jobs, a good range is $3 to $6 per square foot for a new paint job that includes your gutters, windows, trim and any shutters or other decorative elements. Most often a painter will calculate the full expected square footage in advance and quote you a flat rate for the job.

On occasion, professional painters will also charge per room, although it is not as common. In general, it is safe to assume a per-room rate of about $800 to $1,200 to fully repaint a bedroom and $1,000 to $3,000 for a living room or other large living space. These rates include the repainting of the walls, trim, doors and ceiling. If you opt to only repaint the walls you can expect to save about 30% to 40% on the cost.

While less common, some painters will calculate their labor costs per hour. Hourly rates for a professional painter will average $20 to $50 for basic painting but can increase to $100 per hour, or more, for specialty work such as murals or specialty paint.

On average, a skilled painter can cover anywhere from 150 to 350 square feet of paintable area an hour so you can use your calculated square footage to estimate how long a painter will need to complete your job. Always be sure to account for both coats of paint and leave some time for prep work and clean up.

Although labor makes up the majority of professional painting costs, the other 15% to 20% accounts for materials, which includes the paint. You may also encounter other costs if your home requires you to test for lead paint or do additional prep and repair work.

It always pays off in the long run to use the highest quality paint you can afford to get the most longevity and the best finish. Certain other factors can affect the cost of paint as well such as the type of paint and the finish. The two most common paint types are water-based and oil-based.

Water-based paints are great for easy cleanup and application but are duller in appearance than oil-based paints, which are more durable but take longer to dry. Enamel paints are trickier to apply but incredibly durable and easy to clean, making them great for kitchens.

When considering the finish of paint to use a good rule of thumb is the higher the gloss the higher the cost, but also the more durable. Typically wall surfaces are painted in a matte, eggshell or satin finish while millwork elements like trim, cabinets and doors are painted in a semi-gloss or high gloss. The more likely it is to get bumped the higher the gloss you want to ensure a long-lasting finish.

Other materials that are usually involved in repainting are things like drop cloths and tape, brushes, rollers and things like spackle and caulking to prep your walls. A professional painter will have all of these items already, but if you are wanting to DIY expect to spend $50 to $200 on additional materials. 2b1af7f3a8
