Painting Estimate

House is 2200 square feet and needs inside painted. Not sure how much area there is to paint, not sure how to measure or estimate cost? I need a local painter to give me a free estimate?

easy

ok .. if you are just painting walls length times height then multiply by the number of walls. if you are doing the ceiling just do L times W

Paint covers approx. 400 sq ft per gallon

if you are painting ceiling and walls for 2000 sq/ ft house. need about 35gallons

hope that helps.

most paint websites will have a paint estimate calculator.

If you wanna paint the inside part of your house then I suggest you to use better quality paint becoz it costs a bit more than the ordinary one but it stays for long period of time.
