"Mr. Jones and his crew did a great job on painting our home. They showed up on time, were professional and did an excellent job both inside and out. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely be using them again in the future for any other paint jobs we may have."

When they were done, the cleaned up everything. The house looks fantastic! And we plan to use their services again in a few months to paint the exterior."

"I was in need of immediate painting for a new office I was moving into. The Express team not only responded quickly to my request on Angi but came out the very next day to give me an estimate and then began the work within a couple of days! Painting was well done and my office respected—cleaned up as if they’d never been there. Highly recommend Express Yourself Paint."

"Javier did a great job repairing and replacing over 200’ of deck boards and lattice and then brush painting/staining our large deck. Since we are home due to COVID-19 we were able to observe him throughout the project. Good communication, fair pricing, friendly and conscientious. We are very happy with the quality of his work and look forward to hiring him again to paint the exterior of our home."

"We purchased a mid-century farm house and nearly every room had cracks on the plaster walls and ceilings. As well as wallpaper throughout the kitchen and all the bathrooms. Naturally, our family did not have the expertise or time to address all the cosmetic fixes in the house therefore, we decided to recruit professional painters. We had multiple general contractors and painters visit the house to review the work needed to repair the walls, ceilings, kitchen, baths, patio and shed, but none of these businessmen were as thorough and articulate as Mr. Fermin Ortiz owner of “International Painting LLC.” Fermin spent almost three hours walking through the house and property. Taking detailed notes of all the discrepancies we wanted mended and all the while explaining how fix each defect. We were simply surprised of Fermin’s willingness to share the trade techniques to us and we were greatly appreciative that he clarify each method of repair to the plaster, ceiling, wallpaper and removing the lead off the patio and shed. Based on Fermin’s knowledge and honesty. We decided to engage him over the other contractors who had submitted proposals for the project. Once the job was underway, it was apparent that Fermin and his staff are artisans with a fondness of detail. They spent a week and a half merely preparing all the surfaces ready to paint. Sanding, steaming and sealing cracks seemed an eternity, but the time was well spent. The house is a new home with a fresh coat of paint. Gone are the cracks, wallpaper and glue, lead. Mr. Fermin Ortiz is a craftsman. Should you require his expertise? Be assured that he and his staff will do their utmost to deliver the best product for you. And above all their workmanship is unrivalled by any other contractor in our area."

"My wife and I are very happy with the quality and service we received from Painter 1 Fayetteville. The painters arrived as scheduled, were very professional and ensured that at the end of each day everything was cleaned up and put away. The owner, Cristiam Oviedo, and the painters kept us informed as to the painting progress on a daily basis. An exceptional paint job completed by an outstanding paint crew. I recommend this company if you are looking to have your home painted."

FAQs for painting projects in Clayton, 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.
