Cost of painting vs DIY
It's 10pm. I'm about to start washing gross bathroom walls in the apartment we're renovating to prepare to sand and paint. I'm on BP because I don't want to do it...
I see people talk about hiring painters that can knock out a job in a couple of days all the time. However, the prices I've gotten for painting are so expensive! Hence I do it myself. The only solace is the amount of money I'm saving. Where do you guys go to get it good and inexpensive painters? I've been quoted from $2000-$3000 for a 750 square-foot apartment ( that includes ceiling, trim, doors, walls). I don't doubt they are worth it, but that's money that goes into the non-DIY line panel replacements.
Side note, I love doing DIY while listening to podcasts about scaling up and hiring out; oh, the irony!
