"We had to have my son's house trim painted for the insurance company. They did an awesome job, rather quickly and went above and beyond what we expected. Most definitely recommend them! ð ð ð"

"I haven't been back to see him but from the pictures he sent it looks like he did exactly what he said he was going to do and it looks good. The renters said it looked good as well. I was happy with his professional attitude and it seemed like he went a little bit further to get things done. He had the lowest bid but that was not the reason I chose him. He did the work. The garage hadn't been painted for 15 years. I tried 7 companies and only had responses from 4. He was right on the spot and kept me up to date every step of the way. He was very professional. I would absolutely use him again."

"Chelsey is utterly meticulous, never cutting any corners. (I used to think of myself as a halfway decent painter, but learned what a difference there is between my novice patching and imperfect sanding. Also, it matters that the walls get wet- and dry-wiped at multiple points in the process - learned that from watching this pro do her magic...) Clean-up is so thorough, no one would ever guess you'd just had a professional painter in. Chelsey has also done other work for us, including exterior business signage. Always the highest quality work."

FAQs for painting projects in Marquette, MI

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.
