"I can only suggest one thing - Call Richard for any painting or power washing projects. Don't walk, Run to your phone. This guys and his son were amazing. I was in a pinch to get a room painted, power washing deck, patio and pool area as I was in the process of selling my home. Rich came on time. Gave me a fair quote. And best of all was able to rearrange a few other projects to fit me in to what I would call a small window of time I had. Work was professional and clean. But wait there is more! Power washing of the deck took a bit too much color out (Rich had said he would be aware to keep the pressure down a bit). But when it was done it really needed to be stained. No hesitation. Rich knew it had to be stained. Again he re-arranged his scheduled and came on a SUNDAY to finish the project. Now I am not saying to expect this on every job. But the Lord was looking over me and out of Angie's list came RAP painting!! Run, don't walk to you phone."

Customers say: True professional

"Very happy with it. Rich, Sergio, and the crew are all great to work with and very easy to get along with as well. I found them on an Angie's List deal and I gave them more work than the coupon because I needed most of the house painted. It was well worth the cost as the walls look picture perfect. You can see all the time that was put in to smoothing out the walls and the fixing the kitchen cabinet that wasn't in the greatest shape (lots of gaps, doors were taken off, and everything was caulked and smoothed) and making it look like I just installed a new built-in. I even saw a couple of minor issues and Rich and Sergio were out there next day to fix them up. They have a perfectionist mentality. I would definitely hire again if I need the other rooms done."

"We got our house power washed and rooms painted from Nick. Awesome job ! House looks like new and painting job looks beautiful . My biggest fear of hiring contractors is that they never come on time or skip a day or two , but Nick was on time ( actually a bit early ) every single day and focused on his job throughout the day . He is very well experienced so won’t do jobs that are going to mess up your project , he knows exactly what to do , and how to do it right . I have two little kids , so the paint quality he used was awesome , barely any smell or chemicals- really appreciate that . I’ll definitely hire him again ."

"He was very prompt and extremely polite and quiet. I was working form home while he painted and he didn't disturb me at all. I only have two complaints. He used outdoor primer in my kitchen, which smelled very bad and aggravated my asthma. Also, he didn't tape his edges, which led to a few slightly messy spots. All in all, he did a nice job and smoothed out the walls beautifully after all the damage from removing improperly installed wallpaper. I would hire him again, but I'd provide my own primer and ask him to tape crucial areas for neatness."

"Tomas was very professional, neat and showed up on time! He is the owner and the person who does the work. He did a great job spackling our walls as there was quite a bit of water damage. You cannot tell where he spackled now that it is painted. He paid a lot of attention to detail. He removed a motion detector, light switches and put everything back prior to leaving. I would highly recommend him for his work and his pleasant demeanor."

FAQs for painting projects in Newton, NJ

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.
