"The Joses—Junior and Senior—along with the on-site manager, Elvis, took great care of us in painting our nearly 100 year old duplex home. They finished ahead of schedule and did a fantastic job following our more-complicated-than-usual historic painting plan. Our building looks so good that I have been asked by multiple neighbors who did the amazing paint job. I have referred all of them to Jose!"

"Winfield Painting is amazing! My husband and I purchased an older place, and our kitchen cabinets were old! They were the original cabinets from the early 80's ... and the wear and tear they experienced showed. We did not want to pay the full price of replacing all the cabinets, so we contacted Glen to get an estimate. Glen is amazing! He came out and looked over the kitchen and provided us with his professional opinion of what would be the best way to modernize the cabinets. After we decided on painting them, he provided us with an estimate and left paint samples for us to look over. We are THRILLED with the quality of his work! Glen worked around our schedule, met with us when we were available, and within a week from the first meeting, completed the cabinets. The quality of his work is amazing, and you can not beat his price!!!! I am so happy that we called Winfield Painting. I highly recommend Glen and plan on using him again when it is time to update cabinets throughout our place. Great work! Great price! Highly, highly recommended!"

"They did an amazing job floating the ceiling to repair cracks. They also resurfaced our kitchen and bathroom cabinets a beautiful light grey. All turned out great! The communication was spot on and the price was fair. I highly recommend Desert Painting for any painting needs."

"The large paint crew came early and finished my one story house by 4pm. They painted the stucco, trim, siding and gates. The work was neat and professional, and the crew polite and cooperative. Jame's price was excellent and lower than the other two estimates I obtained. My house looks wonderful!!"

"Riveraâ s Quality Painting should be called Riveraâ s Perfect Painting. These men are very skilled at making sure everything is handled professionally, cleanly, thoroughly and put back in place pristine. The gentlemen are very hard workers and did everything exactly to our specifications in a timely manner. They showed up on time each day for work and the result exceeded our expectations by far. My 20 year old home looks new and I have multiple jobs lined up for them in the near future on the interior as they do exterior, interior, cabinetry, stain etc. I am over the moon pleased and grateful."

FAQs for painting projects in La Quinta, CA

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.
