$350 to $800 for a standard 12x12 bedroom with walls only, or $600 to $1,300 including ceiling and trim.

What does interior painting cost per square foot?

$2 to $6 per square foot of floor area for walls, or $1.50 to $4 per square foot of actual wall surface painted.

Is labor or paint the bigger cost?

Labor is 75% to 85% of an interior painting bill. Upgrading to premium paint adds little to the total and often saves a coat.

One gallon covers about 350 to 400 square feet per coat. A 12x12 room with 8-foot ceilings needs roughly 2 gallons for two coats.

Should I paint before or after new flooring?

Paint first. Drips and touch-ups are far easier before the finished floor goes in, and installers can scuff fresh baseboards.

How long does interior painting take?

One to two days per average room including prep, or three to five days for a whole 2,000 square foot home with a two- to three-person crew.
