My sister and I have been requested to give a "bid" for painting the interior of an 800 sq.ft. home. We can figure out the materials cost, but how much to charge for our time is a mystery to us. The biggest part of the prep time will be removing wallpaper and taping. There is not a lot of woodwork to paint. We will be painting the ceilings also. Any ideas?

Figure how much you need per hour and how many hours you think it will take. Too low and it will come out of your profit, too high and you may not get the job?
