"It was an excellent experience! Jeff Sellers met with me to discuss the job, assess exactly what needed to be done, and then provided a very detailed and competitive quote for the work that was needed. Marco led the painting team and he was outstanding! My husband is a perfectionist and the work was done impeccably. Jeff and Marco offered discounts to buy the paint that was needed and the clean-up after was also excellent. We met with several painters referred by Angi, but we are so happy that we decided on Merrifield Paint & Design. We highly recommend them and would be happy to supply a reference if ever needed. Highly, highly recommend!!!!"

"Thank you Wow 1-Day Painting employees and management for the excellent job on the interior of my home. The family room, kitchen, hallway, foyer, stairs, and upper landing look beautiful. Working with you was a great experience--and so satisfying that I want to acknowledge it in writing. From start to finish virtually everything went smoothly. When soliciting an estimate, the Wow estimator arrived on time—as did Wow painters every single day of work. Wow’s estimate was reasonable—falling in the middle of four estimates that we solicited from other highly-rated companies. The Wow estimator also made excellent suggestions on the choice of paint color and type. When work started, I watched how the company’s painters prepped walls and baseboards. I saw how carefully they removed wallpaper to avoid damage to walls before priming. Throughout the five days of painting, they paid attention to detail—while being polite and courteous. When my wife and I made suggestions during work, the painters listened to us and positively responded. On completion of the job, they cleaned the work site to our satisfaction. We value consistency in the high quality of this company's work. This is not the first, but the third time, that we have had excellent work performed by Wow Painting. Previous high-quality work done here was a major reason that we again chose Wow. Wow painters worked hard, neatly, and were responsive to my wife and I as we inspected work as it progressed. We want to express our appreciation to the entire crew of painters for their good work. And, we want to cite two wonderful individuals who spent the most time here and who most impressed us with their effort, attentiveness, and quality of work: Manuel and Neptali. We especially want to bring their performance to the company's attention. Certainly, all of the Wow paint crew deserves praise. Likewise, we want to thank too Craig, Laura, and Louis who managed, coordinated, and oversaw day-to-day work. Throughout the entire week, they were prompt to respond to our questions, and satisfied all concerns we had. So now, when my wife and I now look over the work that was performed, we really do say Wow!"

"C & Painting did an amazing job on my garage! They were fast, efficient, and extremely professional from start to finish. The paint looks flawless, the space was left spotless, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. I absolutely love the final result and would recommend them to anyone looking for quality work done right."

Customers say: Quick response

"We have been very pleased with the many projects AW Painting has completed for us over the past 9 months including installing new interior doors, painting garage doors, shutters, and front door, painting our interior upstairs and main floor and completely renovating two bathrooms - new tub, shower, tile and fixtures. Estimates were fair and communication was easy through both email and texts. Carlos and his crew did a great job installing crown molding in our master bedroom and living room and painting our upstairs bedrooms and main floor, paying attention to details in our 50 year old home. The crew came on time each day and did an excellent job cleaning up at the end of the day. The crew comes when they are expected and each project was completed on time. Carlos and his crew were very responsive to any concerns. I strongly recommend AW Painting."

FAQs for painting projects in Bethesda, MD

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.
