"I had a contractor come out to hang several doors for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the job they did. The work was clean, precise, and everything was installed perfectly. All of the doors line up great, open and close smoothly, and the attention to detail really shows. They were professional, showed up when they said they would, and completed the work in a timely manner. It’s hard to find someone who takes pride in their work these days, but they definitely do. If you need doors installed or similar work done, I would absolutely recommend them. I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects."

FAQs for painting projects in Whitley City, KY

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.
