    Biding and estimating paint jobs in my area.
    I'm trying to start my own business. I would like to know how to find the going rates on interior and exterior paint jobs in my area.


    Thanks, Travis

    If you post the area you are wanting to know about, then someone may be able to find you an answer. One place that you could start on your own would be craigslist.org. They have listings for services and prices all over the U.S. You just find a location on craigslist.org near to your area.

    Another thing that you could do is call around anonymously and ask painters if they charge by the square foot or by the room and also what they charge if by the square foot or by the room. I am a professional painter, and I always charge by the square foot.
