THE AVERAGE COST TO PAINT A HOME

Whether you just recently bought your first home, or you want to spruce things up A LOT where you lived for a while, a new paint job can be a great way to refresh your property. You can rely on our team to bring your ideas to reality.

Costs can always be a valid concern? Here’s everything you need to know about the average cost to paint a house, we’ll cover both interior and exterior paint jobs.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO PAINT THE EXTERIOR OF A HOME?

The average cost to paint the exterior of a home is $2,250–$3,580. That’s according to HomeAdvisor, whose members report that an average rate of an exterior paint job starts at $800 and goes up to $5,400. Most homeowners who use the site report spending between $1,715 and $3,676.

The average cost to paint a house depends on several variables, but the biggest one is the size of the property. The cost to paint the exterior of a 1,500 square-foot home will naturally be lower than it is to paint a 6,000 square-foot house. A starting point of around $1,000 is a safe bet, but if your home has multiple stories or has old paint that needs to be scraped, you can expect to pay more.

Calculating the Cost

So, is there a formula that links home size to the cost of a paint job? Opinions differ.

First, measure the exterior square footage of your home and multiply it by the height of your home, from the ground to the roof line. Subtract windows and doors you don’t plan to paint if you feel like getting fancy. You can also subtract window trims if you plan on painting them with an accent color.

Once you have the approximate square footage that you’ll need to paint, remember that a gallon of paint generally covers between 250 and 400 square feet. You’ll need more if you’re painting a rough, porous material, or if you want to paint a dark house a much lighter color. Depending on your color choice, you may need a more expensive tinted primer to help with the color transition.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO PAINT THE INTERIOR OF A HOUSE?

The average cost to paint the interior of a house falls between $1.50 and $3.50 per square foot. If you’re doing the ceilings, walls, and trim, the rate per square foot will likely fall between $3 and $4.

If there are damages to the walls that need to be repaired before painting can proceed, you’ll have to pay extra. These are the average costs if you hire a service provider to paint your home for you. However, you may choose to do the paint job yourself.

Homeowners are more likely to tackle an interior paint job themselves than to take the do-it-yourself (DIY) route for an exterior paint job. That, plus the cost of the paint itself, means that an interior paint job is generally cheaper than an exterior one. It can also be a great way to refresh your space without buying new furniture or making more costly and time-consuming renovations.

Calculating the Cost

To calculate the cost of an interior paint job that you do yourself, measure the square footage of the interior space you need to paint. Consider whether you will need a primer or multiple coats to help with your color transition. If you’re just adding another layer of the same color of paint you used a few years back, you may be able to use a single coat and skip the primer.

Once you have the interior square footage calculated, experts say you’ll want to divide that by 350. Three hundred square feet is the average coverage of a gallon of paint (though some say 250–400 square feet). The average coverage for a gallon of primer is 200 square feet.

Your square footage divided by 350 square feet gets you the number of gallons of paint you’ll need. Square footage divided by 200 gets you the number of gallons of primer you have to buy. You can save money by ensuring you don’t buy too much paint.

From there, you can calculate the cost of the paint job based on the per-gallon price of your paint brand of choice. If you need to buy equipment like ladders, paint guns, sprayers, brushes, etc. remember to factor those prices into your calculation.

DIY FACTORS YOU CAN CONTROL

Aside from the size and the material of your home, there are several factors that affect how much it costs to paint your home. If you paint the house yourself, you’ll most certainly spend less than you would if you hired professional painters.

If you’re making a cost comparison, remember to include the cost of painting equipment when you’re tallying the cost of a DIY paint job. You’ll need a ladder, brushes, and buckets in addition to the paint itself. For an interior job, you probably have to buy tape and a drop cloth.

Another factor that affects the cost of painting a house is the paint itself. Brands come in at different price points. In addition, keep in mind that if you want a super-premium look or paint with minimal fumes, you might have to pay extra.

When you’re selecting paint at the hardware store, don’t be afraid to mention your budget to the staff member helping you. You can consult the internet for recommendations on affordable paint as well.

You can also save money by shopping around for painters and getting bids from different service providers. You can start with recommendations from friends, neighbors, and trusted websites and get quotes for how much the paint job will cost.

Obtain as many quotes as possible because if you go with the first price you’re given, you might miss out on a bargain. Additionally, if you’re a tenant, be sure to check with your landlord to make sure painting your space is allowed.
