Greetings and WELCOME to the site, seerskills!

I moved your question out of Introductions to this forum topic area so that it will be more likely to be noticed and addressed by those who are best able to answer it. Your question will get noticed much more here.

Introductions is for people to introduce themselves only, and we try to not ask questions there. We would appreciate it if you would return to Introductions sometime to tell us a little bit about yourself, if you would be willing to do that.

Concerning your question - there are a lot of factors that go into the pricing of paint jobs.

We need to know some additional things from you before advising you the best.

1. What is (are) the composition(s) of the surface areas that will be painted? Wood, concrete blocks, metal, plastic, other?

3. In what manner or manners will the paint be applied - by roller, spray, brush, pads or combinations of those?

4. Is there any surface preparation that needs to be done, like scraping, filling of holes, priming, etc.

5. Will you need to be moving any objects out of the way yourself and also do extensive taping-off of areas?

6. Will you be applying one or two coats of paint?

7. Will you be purchasing the paint, or will the customer be supplying it?

8. Have you had much experience painting in the past working for others in order to make a profit for yourself, please?

Thanks!
