Hey guys..yes it's me again :D

I need my living room and bedroom painted. I'd like to get 1 or 2 guys who work fast and do a good job. If anyone's gotten their place painted recently and can recommend them, please post or PM their contact info and rates.

What is the going rate for a painter anyway? I have no idea..

Thanks all!

    i had a 1 unit apartment painted for 1k. thats including all walls and ceilings. but only walls i think cost about 800 to 700 bucks.

    could find cheaper guys i suppose.

    they did a fine job, my handy man, who can do plumbing and electrical too.

    i didn't hire painters for small job.

    does full on skim coating the right way and painting. Repaired my MIL's water damage at half the cost and what I am sure was a uch better job than the other bidder.

    Just finished using a painter named Bruce Clark and he did a phenomenal job. Not the cheapest around, but he is a pro. Really nice guy too.

    If you want his #, pm me. or you can find his info on parkslopeparents

    really good work and very reasonable prices... and he's a supremely nice man who lives in WT. he painted a majority of the houses on Fuller (exteriors with all the contrasting trims, etc).
