The cost that you will be charged to
paint a room all depends on who you
hire to do the work, but I will
endeavor to give you a reasonable Idea.
Average cost in London.
Paint ceiling 2 coats of white emulsion.
Paint walls 2 coats of wall color.
Undercoat and gloss all woodwork in room.
Room Sizes (L/W/H Metres).
Average Labor only Cost by a professional painter.
3x3x3=450 pounds
4x5x3=600 pounds
4x6x3.5=875 pounds
Add to the above the cost of materials, which
I can only estimate at about 150 pounds a
room depending on size. The much cheaper
option if you are at all handy is
to put on some overalls and do
it yourself!! saving the labor cost which
accounts for about 80-90% of the price.

You can learn about painting estimating . I
first got started when I got books out of
the local library and I soon discovered
why I was not making enough money. I
was doing painting jobs for less than
i was getting for them! It was a wake-up call.

Exterior painting usually has a lot of weather
damage, especially if it has not been painted for
a few years. Get up a ladder and check
all the woodwork for rot. Pay a lot
of attention to the sashes. Interiors are
different with not much prep work needed
before painting can commence.
