"Five Star painted the main interior space of our house including white ceiling, almost all trim and doors and the walls. Great quality paint, excellent application and completed in less then 2 days. Everyone involved wore a mask. Got get advice on how to deal with our front door whose original stain had badly faded. Fair price."

"We had previously hired Paz Painting to remove popcorn from the ceilings in 2 rooms and hired his crew again to do the same in our dining and living rooms, an entryway and the upstairs stairwell ceiling. They also painted several rooms. They did a great job in both regards and did a nice job of cleaning up when done. Narciso is easy to work with and I would definitely hire his company again."

"Kelvin and his team did an excellent job. They were on time, efficient, diligent, clean and ended the job by painting and gutter cleaning all in one day. Job included Front door Fluted Fascia repair and install, new crawl space door and siding repair and replacement with painting, gutter cleaning. The company name doesnâ t do them justice - they can do more than paint!"

FAQs for painting projects in Carrboro, NC

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.
