I just am looking to find out how much I should charge per square foot to paint an interior job. The house is occupied

If you're using just one color I would charge anywhere from $1 to $1.50

Hi, bowhunterking and mikemedcheck!

How much to charge does depend on a number of factors like, the number of coats to be applied, the manner that the paint is to be applied, surface texture or not, damages to be repaired, existing paint on the surface that might need to be removed, sheen of the paint to be applied, the geographic location of the job, any furniture or other things that might need to be moved or removed by the painter, whether the painter of the customer is supplying the paint, etc.

So, it would be helpful to have as many particulars about a job before deciding on the most appropriate prices.

Thanks!
