I had a painter recently who charged by the day and charged 90 euro but she did a huge amount of work as well. That was my fear that if u pay by the day they could take 2 days to do a 1 day job whereas if you pay by the job it does not bother u to a certain degree how long the job takes as long as it is done well.
well imagine that depends on the size of the house. we got stairs, landing, bedroom, ceiling in another room and a study done in 2 1/2 days and our house is 2500 sq ft so rooms were decent size as was landing
Costing us 3k for a 3250 sg ft house, including woodwork, but not stairs and external doors.
We have to supply the paint for that.
I prefer to agree a final price rather than a price per day.
In my current three bed house 1050 sq ft I managed to paint the hall, stairs and landing in three hours myself and I am no professional, but very careful.
