What Affects the Price
There's no single number that applies to every painting project — pricing depends on the specifics of your site and what you want done. Here's what actually moves the number, so nothing about your estimate feels like a black box.
Interior or exterior (or both)
Number of rooms or total square footage
Surface prep needed — patching, sanding, priming
Paint quality and number of coats
Height and accessibility (for exterior work)
Typical Timeline
A typical interior room can often be completed in a day or two, while a full exterior repaint takes longer depending on size and weather. Your project assistant can give you a realistic estimate once your project is scoped.
Arlington Painting doesn't set prices itself — we collect real pricing for your specific project from qualified local providers, then present you with one clear, all-in estimate.
