"HORRIBLE CONTRACTORS!!! I have had contractors before and experienced some issues but this Anthony guy is very unprofessional and he is an absolutely nightmare! Not a single item was completed from the contract he and I agreed on and he took 60% of the contract amount and he stopped working the property. I had a property with some cosmetic work stuff and repairs which shouldn’t be that complicated. After he toured the property and gave me estimated time frame for 2 weeks. I know normally how it is not done with contractors so I asked him a few more times and confirmed if he could really finish it in two weeks. He was confident and said two weeks for no problem. After it has been almost 4 weeks, not even a quarter of work has been done and I noticed he didn’t even show up. He has so many excuses and complaints every single time when I contacted him. It felt like he was working for free which was not true. We agreed on 3 installment payments, 1st installment, before the job start about 30% of the total price, and 2nd one, 1/3 of the total price, and the last one at the completion of the job. After 2 weeks of work and not much of work has been done, he already requested for the 2nd installment. I asked him, the work has not been done 2/3 of the job, more over not even half way done. Anyway, he got upset and he wouldn’t continue the job if I didn’t pay. So I paid and then BOOM! He didn’t show up at work and when I asked him, his answer was it is too cold to work at the property. He made excuses and excuses and he said he will only come back if the heater is fixed. I did and texted him and called him. NO RESPONSE. Besides, his quality of work is horrible. He and his crew painted all over, light fixtures, light bulbs, floors, even bathtub. What kind of painter paint over the tub?! They simply didn’t even covered the parts not supposed to paint but they were so lazy and sloppy worker. They installed the brand new room doors, two out of three, didn’t even close properly and didn’t even use the shim. Installing the door is one of the basic carpentry job and he can’t even do that! I asked for the breakdown of the work and cost and no answer. When I confronted him for a few stuff, he just blah blah blah and repeating himself by making endless nonsense and not doing the job at all. Even if he does a job, not a good quality one."

Exterior paint costs around $20 to $80 per gallon, while interior paint costs around $20 to $30 per gallon. Outside paints tend to be pricier because they need to withstand the elements, such as abrasion, moisture, and color corrosion from the sun. In addition, painting the outside of a home is more costly at around $3,100, while painting a home interior costs around $2,000.
Use our paint calculator to determine the number of gallons of paint needed for your project. The average gallon of exterior paint covers 350 square feet in a single coat. So, a 1,500-square-foot home with a paintable area of 1,100 square feet requires seven gallons of paint for a two-coat application.
When determining how much extra paint to purchase and whether to apply primer, clear planning is essential. Rounding up your paint requirements ensures complete coverage and prevents gaps during the application process. Extra paint acts as a safeguard against miscalculations, while proper primer application—decided by the paint type and exterior condition—secures adhesion and long-lasting protection.
When determining how often to repaint your home’s exterior, careful evaluation of both the current paint condition and building materials is crucial. Exterior paint is engineered to last five to 10 years. Aluminum surfaces require repainting every five years, wood requires a new coat every three to seven years, and painted brick needs refreshing every 15 to 20 years. Visible chipping or cracking signals the need for prompt repainting to sustain protection and curb appeal.
When deciding whether to roll or spray exterior house paint, the method chosen directly influences the overall finish and work efficiency. Rolling delivers precision and control for tight, detailed areas, whereas spraying achieves a smooth, even coat on large surfaces with high efficiency. The equipment used and labor intensity are key considerations; homeowners must choose the technique that best suits their project scale and quality requirements.
When evaluating the duration of an exterior painting project, a professional team completes an average-sized house within three to four days. Larger or more complex projects—such as three-story homes or residences with extensive architectural details—require five to six days due to increased surface area and additional setup. A contractor provides an exact timeline after reviewing all project specifics.
