I have very tall ceilings in my house that are in need of painting. Can anyone recommend a good painter that you have used. Also how do most people charge here? Is it by the hour or the job? Thanks in advance.

Gordon Pritchard painted our large house inside and out. His price was reasonable though don't recall how he worked the numbers. Nice fellow and his crew did a good job.

Or
(340) 690-7341

Usually painters charge by the job. Charging by the hour can lead to some bad surprises.

charging by the job can lead to some bad surprises for the one doing the work too

Shouldn't be many surprises with painting especially interior. Any repairs that would be needed would normally be charged extra at a flat rate unless they are included in the initial bid.

Just had our whole Interior painted by Tyrone Lake - FANTASTIC! He bid the job. He was FAST. And he did great work - especially all the cut in work. 340-277-7274
