At a minimum I would recommend masking off the top of your baseboards. This will keep paint spatter (small dots of paint that fly off your roller cover) from speckling your trim.
Prep work is all about repairing cracks or holes in drywall and trim, priming, masking, and the cleanup after the job is done. This costs between $20 and $80 per room on average.

The total cost of exterior house painting is based on several factors. This includes location, square footage, price of paint per gallon, and condition of the exterior.
We definitely took some short cuts when we first painted our house. Some rooms need to be redone now. It was like mess up a few rooms before we found out what really worked for us. LoveCompassionateLee February 25, 2015
If you let the contractor purchase the paint and other supplies, you can take advantage of the discounted rate they get from suppliers. Even though they may mark-up materials slightly, the cost is generally better at the pro rate.

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.
Before you can begin painting your interior, you have to do a few things to prepare your space. Some of these preparations may be included in your contractors’ painting fee, but you can also take care of some of the jobs yourself. If you’re planning on doing things yourself, be sure to have everything prepared before the painters arrive. Otherwise, you’ll be wasting their time and potentially adding expenses to your project.
Easy to schedule, great work, and exceptional consideration while work was being completed. Even put our porch furniture back, rehung bird feeders etc even though we have moved it all before their arrival. thanks!
Pros and homeowners can apply paint by spraying or rolling it onto the wall. Spraying takes less time and less work, resulting in lower labor costs for you. You can save money, especially on large jobs, by hiring a painting contractor who uses a sprayer.
Peeling paint, chipped siding, or other issues are often symptoms of underlying issues in the stucco or wood. A house's frame can become damaged by weather over time, which can bubble up into surface-level issues with the outer coats of paint. At SF House Painting, we recognize this, and prioritize carpentry and repair work which fixes the underlying issues. All of our projects start with this preparation phase, ensuring the longevity of your paint job. We even offer a free five-year warranty. We're that confident that our products will last. Contact SF House Painting if your house is in need of a new paint job.
Rollers are made from fuzzy material that puts more than paint on your walls. It is important that you remove any debris, such as loose fibers, from the roller.
The paintable area of most homes ranges from 500 square feet on the small end to 4,000 square feet on the large end. You’ll usually pay between $1.25 and $4.17 per square foot for professional painting, or a national average rate of $2.71 per square foot. We used that average to calculate the approximate overall cost to paint homes of several different sizes.
