"Kind Home Painting is the best! They have Customer Service down to an art form. The quality of their workmanship is beyond reproach and their staff is professional with exemplary expertise. They provided wonderful front-line support on initial contact, to color specialists, project managers, and finally the workers who did the painting - every step of the process was streamlined with an emphasis on providing the best customer service. I first used Kind Home Painting for staining my fence and was so impressed I followed up and had them paint my house. I highly recommend Kind Home Painting."
After; What a transformation! Body color is Comfort Gray SW 6205. Trim is Alabaster SW 7008, and Accent is Rookwood Red SW 2802

"I can't say enough about the amazing job Cliff Stuart Interior Painting did with our complete interior house paint job. Cliff and his crew took the time to carefully remove all the lighting, windows, and electrical hardware in each of the rooms (and replaced at the end), repaired all the holes and damaged areas, and then hand painted primer and two coats of paint on all the walls, trim, and ceilings. This 31 year old house now looks as good as any of the new build model homes! We're so pleased with how it turned out. Cliff is a professional and shows up when he says he'll be there, takes care of the house during the process as if it were his own, and provides sage recommendation on the things you never even considered when you started the process. You get what you pay for and I believe I got everything I was hoping to receive and then some. You can find cheaper spray on paint companies out there, but I'm VERY satisfied with our results from hiring Cliff and his team!"

"We were referred to Painting Plus from a friend who had a great experience. They just finished painting the interior of our new home, and did a fantastic job. There were on time for the quote, followed up quickly, started up the day after we provided the paint colors, and kept coming back until the job was finished. During the work, they were very careful about covering floors and furniture, and the finished product looked great. We would highly recommend."

"Kylan painted the exterior of both my home and my daughters home. We were very impressed with his work. He took the time to help us understand which paint would be best for our brick homes. He was very patient and responsive during the project. We have him scheduled to paint the interior this year! Iâ d highly recommend him to anyone."

"We didn't have the paint from the previous owners, but they were able to match the color so you couldn't even tell. Great value and great work. Definitely will use them again."

FAQs for painting projects in Boulder, CO

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.
