Im doin a paint job on someones house im up and down a ladder whilst doin it as its on the roof line,?

Question

the area im painting is 60ftx1ft i would like an idea of how much to charge? the paint is provided by the customer so im just doing the labour, it needs 2 coats (primer/gloss) it should take approx 6-7hrs due to the location im painting!

Answer 1

you want £10 per hr

Answer 2

I charge at £100 for an 8 hour day..

So should you.

Answer 3

For a non-tradesman to paint that area I think anywhere fron $60 to $80 dollars is a fair price.

Answer 4

Charge by the hour, I feel £20 p/h is a fair price.

Answer 5

where are you living?? what is your currency??

My husband is a painter and decorator by trade and he would charge approx €400

Answer 6

How much do you want?  Around $25/hour is reasonable enough.  If you can do a good job then anyone would be happy to pay that and if it's cash, even better.  You have to factor in things like how far you have to go for the job.  If it's not far and you've got nothing better to do then a couple hundred bucks for a day's work is ok.  It's not that hard to do.

Answer 7

If it is going to take 8 hours, I would throw in another 2 for set up and clean up. I would charge 20 bucks an hour wich is 200 bucks, at that price they are still getting a deal.

Answer 8

my rate is 20-25 an hour

Answer 9

charge an hourly rate that you should have agreed before you started
