Painting projects involve numerous steps, from surface preparation and priming to applying multiple coats of paint. Exterior painting often requires more extensive surface preparation due to weather exposure and potential peeling or cracking. Interior projects may include drywall repair, patching, and trim work, which can add to the overall cost. Professional spray painters offer convenience and often deliver a higher-quality finish due to their experience and specialized equipment. However, DIY projects can be significantly cheaper but require time, effort, and the right tools. Interior projects range from $2,000 to $3,500 for a typical 2,000-square-foot home, with costs increasing based on room size and complexity. Exterior painting costs approximately $2 to $6 per square foot, while smaller jobs may fall within the $200-$400 range for a 12x12-foot room. Larger projects, like a 15x20-foot room or larger, can cost $300-$700 or more. Costs can also vary considerably based on the type of paint used and the number of coats applied.
