What Does It Cost to Paint a Home? Here’s What to Expect - Painting Services in White Rock

Whether you're painting your home’s interior or giving the exterior a refresh, one of the first questions that comes up is: How much is this going to cost?

The short answer: it depends — but here’s what you can expect.

Interior Painting Costs

Interior painting usually ranges from $4 to $8 per square foot. For a full interior repaint on a standard home (1,500–2,500 sq. ft.), you’re looking at roughly $4,000 to $8,000.

What affects the price:

• The condition of the walls

• Number of coats needed

• Ceiling height and trim work

• Paint quality and colours chosen

Rooms in good shape and simple colours will cost less. Detailed work or dramatic colour changes tend to cost more.

Exterior Painting Costs

Exterior jobs are a bit more involved. For a typical two-storey home, expect $7,000 to $14,000+ depending on:

• What your home is made of (stucco, wood, brick, etc.)

• How much prep is needed (scraping, sanding, caulking)

• Ease of access (rooflines, landscaping, height)

• Paint type and weatherproofing requirements

Homes with wood siding, peeling paint, or other damage will need more prep — and that’s where the cost can climb.
