Most interior painting projects cost between $5,000 and $20,000. The exact price depends on whether the home is occupied, how much prep work is required, and the number of colors and coats you choose.
Estimated room costs:
- Small rooms: $500–$1,000
- Larger bedrooms or small living areas: $1,000–$2,000
- Open layouts or tall, two-story rooms: $1,500–$3,000
For example, repainting an empty 1,500 sq. ft. home in the same color could be around $4,500. Mid-range projects for medium-sized homes with moderate prep and two coats often range $8,000–$12,000, while large homes or projects with extensive repairs can exceed $12,000.
