Paint Baseboards

While most painters bundle labor into the cost per linear foot when creating an estimate, others charge per hour. You can expect professional painters to cost $20 to $50 per hour for the labor required to paint your baseboards.

Painting wall

Painting a wall can dramatically enhance the look and feel of any room. Start by prepping the surface—clean the wall, fill any holes or cracks, and apply painter’s tape to edges. Use a primer if necessary, then apply your paint in even strokes with a roller, using a brush for edges and corners. Let the first coat dry before applying additional coats for a smooth, professional finish.

Interior Painting FAQs

When you’re considering hiring a painter, a quote should include the following items:

  • Overall price

  • Price for each area (e.g., living room, master bedroom) or item (e.g., trim, doors)

  • Cost of labor

  • Cost of materials

  • Description of prep

  • Description of repairs to be made

  • Description and details of paint application (number of coats, brand and type of paint, etc.)

You may need to provide your own paint, depending on the agreement you make with the painter. Some painters prefer that you buy the paint and they supply the labor. However, some professional painters get a better price on paint and can pass that savings along to you even after accounting for labor costs.

The average cost to paint a ceiling ranges from $3 to $8.50 per square foot, which is about $1 to $2.50 more per square foot than the cost to paint the walls. Rooms with high ceilings require working from a ladder or scaffolding and often include trim or detail work, which adds to the final price.

Professional painters charge $20 to $50 per hour, on average. Hourly rate cost factors include the complexity of the paint job, the type of paint, the height of the walls and ceiling, and the type of prep and repairs needed. For example, removing wallpaper costs an additional $3 per square foot because it can be very time consuming and labor intensive. Your location will also impact the hour rate.
