"Third time I've hired Greg Sefner for painting work in my apartment. Excellent work on original, 100+ year old plaster walls and ceilings patching, painting, and addressing wallpaper bubbling off walls."

"Martin, Josh and the rest of the team painted about 2/3 of our house interior. They were excellent with their communication, showed up when they said they could start, completed the large project timely and did a great job throughout all rooms. Highly recommend them for your painting needs!!!"

"Ramon and his crew did an amazing job painting our basement storage room. This is the second time we have hired Envision to do some painting for us and we are extremely happy how professional they are. Besides getting the job done on a timely manner they clean up so nice before they leave for the day. Ramon was right on how long the job would take and we are extremely happy how everything looks. We definitely will be using Envision for all our future projects. I highly recommend them and I suggest you hire them, you will not be sorry."

"It was a pleasure to work with Juan Serna. He was prompt, courteous and willing to help me problem solve as we figured out the project. The painting crew completed the work in a timely and thorough manner. When Juan checked back with me at the end of the day, there were some small drips on the back of the house that he cleaned up without hesitation. I also appreciated that Juan attended to some caulking that was badly needed on our chimney. I will certainly call JPS for my future painting needs."

FAQs for painting projects in South Milwaukee, WI

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.
