"Rob painted the hallway of our 4 storey condo, and also revarnished the much weathered front door. The entire project went so smoothly! Rob worked quickly, and neatly. The hallway looks fantastic. The entire job went so well, I asked him to paint our living room next!"

"I am happy to say that I?m a repeat customer! I hired Aymen from Skyline Painting to paint my bathroom and kitchen in April this year and I loved it so much I had to have him come back to paint my laundry area, primary bedroom, and stair risers. As usual, Aymen and his team did a great job! They covered everything and cleaned up afterwards. Aymen shows up on time and his work is impeccable. His prices are great and he goes above and beyond to make sure his customers are satisfied. I?m already planning my next project. Give Skyline Painting a call and you won?t be disappointed!"

"I had the pleasure of hiring Mayron to restore my water-damaged kitchen. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and excellent craftsmanship surpassed all expectations. They seamlessly put walls and cabinets back together, installed new lighting and tile, and painted with precision. Impressed with their work, I also had them redo my bathroom. The team was punctual, friendly, and their exceptional skills made the entire process stress-free. I highly recommend this painter for top-notch painting, and renovation services."

"I hired Filippo and his team to paint my apartment and couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was seamless. They showed up on time, came fully prepared, and got straight to work. The prep work was thorough — they carefully covered all my furniture and floors, taped off trim and edges, and patched a few small wall imperfections before even picking up a brush. The attention to detail really showed. The quality of the painting itself is excellent. The coverage is even, the lines are crisp and clean, and every corner and edge looks professional. They did a beautiful job working around outlets, trim, and fixtures without leaving a single drip or smudge. The crew was respectful of my space, kept the mess to a minimum, and cleaned up completely before leaving each day. The job was finished on schedule and right on budget. My apartment looks completely transformed. I'll definitely be calling them again for future projects."

"We contacted Rhino to paint a room on short notice. He responded quickly and was able to accommodate our timeframe at a very reasonable price. The day of the job he arrived right on schedule and did a great job painting. He's very friendly and it's easy to see that he takes pride in his work. We've received several compliments on how good the room looks. We will definitely call Jo again for our next painting project!"

"What started out as a small window pane replacement job worked it's way into many other jobs. Cesar repaired my front steps and backyard patio. He painted: basement floor, pipes, stairwell walls and steps, painted the quest room, repaired and painted damaged ceilings, replaced damaged wallpaper, fixed open seams of wallpaper. He's coming back to repair and paint back foyer walls, woodwork and doors. His man will be sanding polyurethane my wood floor in the toy room. His work was good and neat. He removed all unwanted material and if I needed a small unplanned job, he did it without charging. He is very respectful and has a kind heart. I have recommended him to friends."

FAQs for painting projects in Union City, 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.
