Interior painting typically costs between $5,000 and $20,000. The final number depends on whether the home is furnished or vacant, how much prep is needed, how many wall colors you choose, and how many coats each surface requires.
Approximate room costs:
Â
- Small rooms: $500–$1,000
- Larger bedrooms or small living areas: $1,000–$2,000
- Open-concept or two-story spaces: $1,500–$3,000
Â
A 1,500 sq. ft. vacant rental repainted in one color might run $4,500. Mid-range projects for medium homes with some prep and two coats usually fall between $8,000 and $12,000. Larger homes or extensive repairs can run higher.
