I got a 15x26 room(1 side is brick) with lots of window trimming. Need the ceiling painted too, no baseboards. Light touch up work on dry wall required. No furniture moving needed.

The last I painted was over 5 yrs ago. Not feeling like spending all day doing it.

Not including paint, how much should I pay someone? It doesn't have to be A+ work.

My guess is $225 for a legal, reputable contractor. $100 if you pick from the Home Depot hangout lot. Just a guess though.

No paint, but I've got four Hispanics expected any minute now to build a privacy fence in my yard.

I pay for painting. It is one of the task that I just will not do...

Never again

So what will your total cost be in the end do you think? I need to do the same.

Yeah. I had a $100 gift card and still managed to spend $150 for the two of us. I got their prime ribeye and it was divine. From the looks of the carnage around the house, wife needing a hip replacement, and the status of my head this morning, the wine was damn fine as well.
