"They really went out of their way fixing a hole in the ceiling. They patched the hole perfectly and painted, but the paint didn't match. So for only $30 extra they took a sample to the store, matched the paint, bought some paint, and re-did the painting! They are very fair and honest and did a great job for us. For sure will re hire."

"RNL painting came highly recommended from a friend of mine. With a new baby on the way it was hard to get the room painted on our own. We were so pleased with how the baby's room came out that we hired Rob to paint the remaining interior of our home. We love the warm and inviting vibe our home has thanks to RNL Painting. We highly recommend his services!"

"Eric is the owner of EJ painting. He is honest and hardworking. His prices are the best and his work always out shines the more expensive competitors. Eric works in my house when I am work and he leaves my house as clean as when he started. He has painted and done sheet rock in the majority of my home. He also power washed my garage floor! He’s extremely versatile and aims to please. I have never once been disappointed in his work. I will be hiring him again to do my bathroom next. A+"

"Louis and John are experts at painting. They are neat, efficient, and were great with my home’s 100 year-old plaster walls. I found them to be hard working, on-time, and respectful to my home like it was their own. I highly rate the quality of their paint and of their painting."

"Paul and his crew of two additional painters worked with us to be sure we were happy. Work included having to prep walls that I removed wallpaper myself from unprofessionally, and they made them look new again! They were organized, clean and even used a HEPA vacuum (managing dust). They worked quickly, yet professionally every day and performed every agreed upon step as contracted. I received a few quotes for the work and Paul s price was very competitive, but equally important, he and his team were a pleasure to have work in our home. We are 100% satisfied and now my wife wants to paint more rooms because we found Paul and Central Jersey Painting. They trustworthy and we are lucky to have found them through Homeadvisor. A+++"

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.
