"This was the best experience I’ve ever had with a contractor. Very professional. Very reasonable price. Aurther is very quick and his painting is awesome!! All freehand, no taping. He recommended Sherwin Williams paint, which made all the difference too. Our walls look brand new!! If he sees something that needs attention he will let you know. More than pleased with his work!!!!"

"I bought an Angie's List Deal for $200 for 8 hours of painting from Pride Decorating. Joe returned my call promptly and came out that same day to take a look at the space and let me know what would be feasible during the time period that I had paid for. He called me a couple days later to schedule.
He arrived right at the arranged time, did all the work that we discussed, cleaned up everything thoroughly.
He was professional, prompt, and easy to work with.

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.
