Good quote from painter?
"In the future - everybody will be world-famous for 15 minutes."
-- Andy Warhol
If the €1K quote is for the full house inside and out with the exception of the box room etc then it does look very cheap. We paid €2.5K all-in (e.g. including paint/materials) last year for a full job inside (woodwork, walls, ceilings) and out (wooden windows, faschias/soffits, rear plastered wall, outside doors) and excluding boxroom and small bathroom/kitchen which took our man 5 days 7AM-5PM each day.
