    You figure out the amount of materials needed... you figure out how long it should take, and how many guys it will need. And add your Labor, overhead costs and a bit extra for profit. How much that might be depends on how much competition you have.

    What those amount to depends on where your are (labor varies significantly by location), how fast you are and how big the job is.

Need a faster way to paint baseboards and trim [ 6 Answers ]

I do not like the time involved at using "miles" of painter's masking tape to cover walls when painting trim and especially baseboards. Yet, I like a "razor" sharp line to demarcate the two areas.
