Interior Paint Guide is a free service that connects homeowners with local interior painters and painting companies. We are not a painting contractor and we do not perform the work ourselves.
Interior painting typically costs about $2 to $6 per square foot including labor and materials, or roughly $400 to $950 to paint the walls of a standard room. A whole-home interior commonly runs $2,000 to $8,000 or more. Ceilings, trim, prep work, wall height, and paint grade decide where you land.

It depends on the state. Some require a painting contractor license above a dollar threshold; others regulate it locally or not at all. We match you with companies that carry the license their state requires and are insured.
For homes built before 1978, the federal EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting Rule requires paid firms to be Lead-Safe certified. We connect you with companies that follow lead-safe practices where they apply.
