Customers say: True professional

"I can't say enough good things about this experience. It was professional, friendly, and seamless. I cannot deal with disruption so have put off painting for a long time. Kevin was unbelievable, He moved the furniture and covered it along with all the floor area. Not a spec of paint was dripped anywhere even with the ceilings being painted. He fixed all of the cracks etc. and sanded with no dust. The painting is perfect. Perfect lines. I would recommend this business to everyone. I don't think you can find anyone better. I am just so thrilled with my home now. What a difference."

"Brian and his crew are top notch! They painted the exterior of our home last summer, and then the interior just a few weeks ago. They are knowledgeable, diligent, friendly and professional. Both jobs were fairly large and complex. I would highly recommend them for any paint project."

"I had an excellent experience and would hire him again. Punctual and excellent communication before, during, and after job was complete. He has a wide variety of skills and will hire him for additional things needed done around house. Crew was friendly and respectful and cost of jobs were affordable and realistic . Excellent cleanup at end of job as well. Definitely worth rehiring."

"Travis and Korey are very professional and great to work with, from the 1st visit and quote to the final completion. They committed to the job and schedule and finished ahead of schedule. They delivered a high-quality job and even included extra 'touch-ups' to make sure everything looked great. We looked at 3 companies and Reis was not the lowest quote but worth every penny. They helped us with painting but we highly recommend them for any job."

FAQs for painting projects in Clay, NY

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.
