"The Ace in the Hole team did an outstanding job. Very professional. We had a tremendous amount of painting to do. Nick and his team were thorough, neat, meticulous, and on time! I have contracted with 5-6 painting companies over the last 20 years and I can easily state Ace in the Hole has been the best. Very easy to work with and they delivered an outstanding product upon completion. No redos, no messes, no stress. And all at a very reasonable price. They will be our "go-to" contractor for our future painting needs."

"Oscar was great to work with and patient on my request for brick stain and picking colors while there is a national shortage. Hard workers. Good job. Not quite the level of detailed my ocd desires but Iâ ve never had a house painted before and it would take me months and months to do it that way! Ha. Would highly recommend."

"John and his sons painted 3 walls white in our master bedroom, plus two doors , trim, and baseboards. They painted one accent wall. They did an excellent and professional job. They did all the prep work-protecting furniture with plastic etc. After they painted, they cleaned everything. We would highly recommend these painters!!"

"Excellent experience with Painting Time, LLC! Ricardo and team were professional and easy to work with. Hired them to paint the exterior of my two story home. Their work is of the highest quality. I am very impressed with how good my newly painted house looks and will definitely do business with Painting Time again."

"Harrison and his crew exceeded my expectations! They extensively prepped our house including covering all surfaces that should not be painted, and caulking all the seams before painting. I was nervous about getting the exterior of our home painted, but was so pleased with the final result! Harrison made sure the job was completed smoothly and quickly. Thanks for a job well done!"

"Jeff and his wife Marlena did a wonderful job painting the interior and exterior of our home. Overall experience was great ... they were both easy to get along with, polite, punctual, very neat/tidy, and constantly communicated updates to keep us appraised of progress and estimated completion time. Work quality was very good, and they even got more done than they anticipated in the timeframe we had available. I would highly recommend Jeff for any type of painting work."

"EZ Painting is a top-notched professional services company. They provided consultation, painting, electrical work, and went to stores to pickup critical items. They provided quality work, on-time schedules at a reasonable cost. They cleaned up their workspace which was very impressive. I received 4 quotes for painting. However we were sold when Erik provided a rendition of what our home looked like after painting. I will definitely recommend Erik and the EZ Painting team to my family, friends, and neighbors! Awesome work!!"

FAQs for painting projects in Austin, TX

You’ll need 1 gallon of paint per 350 square feet of coverage. Typical amounts per room size:

  • Small room (200-400 sq. ft.): 1 gallon.

  • Medium-sized (400-800 sq. ft.): 2-4 gallons.

  • Large (800-1,200 sq. ft.): 5-gallons or more.

Painters usually make $20 per hour on average or about $40,000 per year. Independent contractors might pocket a little more. However, they must charge for overhead, such as vehicles, equipment, insurance, marketing and association dues.

Specialty painting, like murals and trompe l’oeil, costs $40 to $50 per hour. Paint might range between $75 to $90. The professional’s skill and experience are also determining factors. While a freelance artist might charge $25 to $30 an hour, a very skilled professional might charge $80 or more. Some might also charge $60 or more for a consultation.

Trompe l'oeil creates a realistic image or optical illusion in three dimensions. Murals are composed on a wall of any size. These two projects vary in price, with a trompe l'oeil typically costing more because of its complexity. Both are considered specialty projects.
