Come on guys, its almost impossible to quote by square foot for painting. It is normally interior rm ? and exterior rm ? and the painter will base it on square foot to buy the paint but usually he will quote labour on how many days and coats to complete the job.

My contractor charge me RM80 per day for painting. Doesn't matter paint wall, door, grill or anything. So the more day he paint the more it cost. My house is 3000 sqft and the total paint labour is about RM800 for 10 days of painting.

Yes, this is very very cheap. Rm 80 is probably his day rate payment to the workers already. What about equiptment, do you provide or is it inclusive?

Well the paint job charge is that cheap because he is also the contractor that renoy house. I guess must be special rate. The painter is indon but his paintjob is superb.

I'm been quoted 8K / 9K and 10K for my 22x75 house (interiod / exteriod). the expensive area are the skim code which cheaper also costed 2.5K.
so for 22 x 75 house, guess should be around 5-5.5K are reasonable included paint (estimated 3K for Nippon) But try to see what Indo will charge... |

I hired a group of 4 Malays to do the painting which was recommended by my reliable wiremen. RM3500 for Skim Coat and Painting for Interior and Exterior but not including the paint. Now it is in progress and will inform whether the quality is good or not after 2 weeks so for 22 x 75 house, guess should be around 5-5.5K are reasonable included paint (estimated 3K for Nippon) But try to see what Indo will charge... Initially i thought you buying the best Paint Nippon Odorless Air Care which cost about RM140 per 5 liter.. I required at least 100 liter for 2 coatings for the whole interior 100liter/5 liter = 20x RM140(Nippon Air Care) = RM 2800 ( Interior Wall) but the my friendly neighborhood hardware store recommend using Jouten Satin Glo ( More glow and with new eco friendly technology which make it Odorless) which is almost on par with Nippon which cause RM 98 100liter/5 liter = 20x RM98(Nippon Air Care) = RM 1960( Interior Wall) save about RM 840 |

If start peeling need to be remove. They will quote accordingly. are those prices you all mentioned include removal of old paint ? Guess for me, not much old paint to worry because most are already new wall with skim coat. |

Why don't you get some other painters to quote you and then you can compare? If there is not much price difference, then just let your ID guy do it. At least if there is any complains/ problem later, you just deal with one person still haven't decide whether to opt for it or not cos not sure if its expensive / cheap |

can anyone share the easiest method/tips/tricks to paint the 1st floor external wall of a corner house? thinking to DIY myself
I was thinking to use a simple long pole with attached broom-type brush like the pro painters use to reach the top edges of the wall. This post has been edited by ycs: Sep 27 2011, 12:27 PM |

For me, I may DIY the interior painting. But not the exterior.
The wall is so high for the side wall. You will need experience and skill to paint the edges and at the same time not to over painting the other parts which is of different colour. It may look simple but if you have not done painting before, then you may be in for the surprise. |

One thing I learn afte completed my painting
1) Skim coat will make your wall smooth only and not solving the wall uneven 2) If you extended your house, make sure all wall been plaster with smooth or same outlook pattern (exterior) Because all this is not included in the paint labour. If small they may do for you else you need to pay for extra |

My friendly advise, nvr judge the painter service by the price they quoted you. Of course we need to do some comparison but what you paid what you get.
I recently appointed one contractor (he also advertise here in Low Yat of painting service), charge me RM1000 for my new condominium. But I am very disappointing with the workmanship. The painter is indo worker, one man gao tim everything. Not even do proper surface preparation work. When asked him to come and do the touch up, the Indo workers complaint a lot..... end up i asked him go back and I myself do the touch up work. My friend appointed a Chinese painter to paint, charge him RM1200, but workmanship is fantastic. RM200 diff?? Worth to pay..... Sometimes too cheap, you need to doubt what kind of outcome u will get. |

I received the quotation from mypainter cost me rm10k for entire house It is not surprising as I have been quoted RM6k just for labour alone previously by some painters. They are looking for water fish 18x65, really expensive.. anyone can recommend me a good painter in Puchong area please. Many thanks The price will very much depends on the condition of the house and the amount of work required. Do you need them to skim coat the walls, etc. Have just PM you a few other painter contacts. You should asked for a few other quotes for comparision. |

10k maybe on the high side. My entire house is 9k inclusive of paint. 22x75, which i think is already expensive. But I still give it to my wet work contractor because of trust and comfort level. Outside maybe in the range of 6k to 8k for my house.

Hi, im painting contractor..
I charged my customer RM 400 per day for 3 workers on site.. Usually a small apartment around 900sqft wall n ceiling can be done in 2 days.. if they want to paint grills and doors add another 1 days sometimes if i need to rush i bring 4 people and if we lucky it can be done in 1 or 2 days.. thats were i raked in profits.. if the surface condition of the wall n ceiling doors n grills is so bad.. i will sugggest the customer do skim coating or remove the old paint altogether.. It may take some time and cost to do it...but the result is exceptional!.. For the paint itself.. If my customer wants me to buy the paint, i will charge them another RM 50 - 100 for transportation..No additional charge here and i will show the receipt if need be.. do visit my blog at www.zekpainter.blogspot.com |

dear forumers, please do pm me contacts for simple painting of a condo unit - 2 grilles and 6 doors including door frames. i don't mind the painter using leftover paint from other jobs as long as the color is acceptable - hoping to save a bit this way!

Paints usually bought at my friend hardware shop. The labour cost for experienced and passionate painter cost about rm90 per day. Clock-in from 8 am to 5 pm. Only 1 lunch break at 12 pm. Very discipline and excellent job. Well that is in Ipoh. Hehehe...

I have my house painted last month and everything just went so smooth. by mypainter painting services, they are the best. It's a little costly then others though, if they can lower their price a little then it would be perfect.

hire some Indon contract worker at RM70 per day. skilled cost maybe RM100 per day. chinese maybe RM120 per day. if small apartment, the price will be proportionately higher. where to hire Indon? go to big hardware shop ! ask them to recommend. they'd usually have phone no of these guys. wanna play safe ? ask who takes the most paint from them. go to local hardware shop to make sure referral is from Indons who live nearby. you don't want to hire some guys based in shah alam, if your project is Ampang. they will somehow hike up their transport cost onto you. buy some paint you supervise them, and there you are are ! then you have to figure out; - transport for the indon, who pays for their lunch - how much water to add to their paint (they will insist more is better as its easier to paint, but it dilutes the effectiveness of the paint and fades faster) - water-jet to clean the wall first? - scrub the wall with detergent and brush? - primer necessary or not necessary - make sure they paint the hard to paint places (behind the door, edge of the door, crevices, ceiling board etc) - they don't splatter paint over the floor - why they keep painting the same spot over and over again (because they make more money the slower they are - try negotiating on a project basis than time cost - with them) - they ask you to buy them drinks - they want to borrow money from you - they want you to introduce more project from them - buy kerosine / turpentine to wash the brush - buy roller - buy 'stick' or aluminium extender for roller to reach the ceiling - buy plastic (to protect the floor) - buy masking tape (to cover the skirting) - buy VOC free paint (higher price) if have children? my experience; labour cost for semi-d painting (internal, external + fence) at RM4,500 exc paint. to see how it works; ask them how many man days they budget. doh.gif for paint - you want super cheap - go for Mattex (all hardware shop sell). quality then go for branded ICI, Nippon Life etc. Go get the brochure and see which paint are you convinced. or save yourself trouble and hire a pro ! sweat.gif |

In JB the upah of painting is same the price of your paint. ie. if u bought rm1000 worth of paint, the painter will ask for rm1000 of upah.

I can recommend my painter, who is also the site supervisor for my soon-to-be completed condo renovation. He and his team are based in Ampang but you will have to wait for my renovation to be completed
PM me if you are interested - not just for painting works, but also for renovation works. They are Indonesian and they do a good job at my place. |

From there they will think for a solution to fix it to prevent any problems in future. Is good that they do that, some other painters they never even use the moisture test and just do the paint, thats why i dont really simply call normal painters to paint my house. Rather pay abit more expensive for a professional painter to do the whole thing. |

Sometimes is good to just find abit more expensive paint job for the quality.However, i do commend them for other quality e.g. their painting is quite neat, paint are not dripping on floor here and there when they do work, workers are punctual to work and friendly. |

QUOTE(klaatu08 @ Jan 15 2013, 11:47 PM) yes, the price is very reasonable, as the painter is a uncle who works as a freelance painter, according to him, he already work as painter for 30+ years. Can you pm me your painter uncle contact number? Thanks yah.. and also mine is a condo abt 1400 sqf, and yours is double storey house. Btw, your 3K for paint include internal & external? I was quoted by a company (online) for the same job at a crazy price, luckily I found this uncle where workmanship is good and price is very reasonable |

the only way to ensure good quality painting is 1) educate yourself, 2) supervise by yourself.
failing which, develop a relationship with a towkay / contractor / worker, and hope he does not cheat you ! even the 'uncle' is dependent on his worker (and check if the workers are hired on a contract basis or permanent basis). |

Sometimes is good to just find abit more expensive paint job for the quality. Painting shouldn't be a problem cause its quite standard job. Important thing is you don't get overcharged. If you want to compare prices go to kaodim.com its a fairly new website. Read about them on the Edge and rakyatpost. You submit a request for whatever service you're looking for and you get introductions and quotes from several contractors who can do the job for you. So you compare, read profiles etc. All free and really quick responses. I've used them twice now and started a reno job with one of their contractors. So far all very satisfied. |

hire a foreign worker, give him a roller and a tub of matex and get it done in a day.
worker = RM80 a day roller = RM10 matex = RM60 plastic sheet = rm45 less than RM200. |

Ask them;
what sort of paint ? even branded paint like nippon have different ranges high end eg low voc. are they going to wash the wall before they paint? maybe no need if clean. are they going to put primer / base paint so that the paint will last for a long time ? maybe no need if existing paint work is good. are they going to paint three layers so that the colour comes out well ? maybe no need if same colour. grill and wood use different type of paint. is a good or cheapo paint ? primer ? are they going to guarantee that the paint does not drip to the floor when they paint the wall / ceiling ? ideally use tape at the edges so that don't make mistake when they paint the edges. many questions to ask..... ask them to give you their previous client phone no and chat. i'm quite sure you can do better if you hire and supervise the workers directly. however if you are time pressured, than maybe its better to pay lah. good luck.

Fog n confusion.
When you don't know, you say let the 'professionals' handle it. That is when you start paying for the double speak. - first coat often use matex. Very very cheap paint. Standard procedure. Then only use good paint. So two layers. - even when the painters use the good paint, they will add water or thinner.(despite what the towkay or owner sez). Its easier to paint. However paintwork not so good, so have to paint another layer. Is the towkay or owner there to watch them all the time. No way. Painter happy as they are paid on a daily rate basis. More income for them. - skim n leveling - depends on the quality n smoothness of the wall. Often quote cheap painting job then the profit margin is in the skim n leveling. Will they bring a spirit level to show you what is the gradient before n after ? Try n see. - double layer on ceiling also use matex. Very cheap paint. Make sure they cover your floor properly otherwise you have more problem cleaning up. Customer acquisition or marketing is expensive. Explaining the process to customer takes time n needs to be costed somewhere. Doing the actual job is actually much cheaper. QUOTE(princehans @ Mar 5 2015, 08:50 AM) Good day.

Must paint be mixed with water first before painting?
Can I say I don't want water mixed with paint as I prefer thicker coating?? I have painted 1-wall before without mixing water and the wall paint quality was still very good after 3 years so I assume it will last longer. In contrast, when I had my whole apt repainted, the workers mixed paint with water and I find the coating thin despite 2 times painting. When I asked the painters, they said must mix with water. |

Don't add thinner / water
- difficult to paint (takes more energy to roll / brush). - paint less no of coat is ok - painter make less money (paid daily rate) Add thinner / water - easier to paint (glides faster / better) - more coat of paint required as each coat thinner - painter makes less money (paid daily rate) in terms of quality alone, i was told that a few thin coats is better than one thick coat. |

Sure you need to roll few time since the coat is thin. So it depend the painter eye are able to different that the paint is still can cover under it and nice or not. |

Renovation completed just pending to fix the lighting. How difficult is it to do painting especially for the plaster ceiling where there is L box or Line box. My contractor says its quite difficult once the downlight is fix. I was thinking to do painting myself (save $$$) but then the way my contractor put it as tho its better to engage people to paint. Pls. share your experience.

Yes. it is difficult. Cause you need to escape the light fixture while paint near. And very high chance that you over paint the light fixture edge. Best is to paint first, than install the light later. |

But if you using the normal round type CFL, you can pull down abit. As long as there is a gap, your brush can go underneath. Others type not sure.I know is best to paint b4 installating but I can only paint on Sunday. Or stick a masking tape around the light fixture before paint. That is an extra job. But no choice. |

Hi guys,
Need advice if I'm being cheated? I was quoted by a Painting contractor RM1.2k to paint the interior (wall only) of my condo. - condo size is 950sqf - to be painted area (Master bedroom, guest room, living hall) - excluding 2 toilets - excluding balcony (abt 30sqf) He mentioned/quoted that: - paint must be bought by him (i cannot buy the paint for him) - need 2 days to complete - need 2 x Maxilite Plus Interior (Waterborne) EMULSION PAINT 18L In the end: - spent 4 hours only to complete the job (2 person) - used 3/4 of FIRST pail of Maxilite Plus Interior (Waterborne) EMULSION PAINT 18L (saw him mix with water as well) - 2nd pail of Emulsion Paint was not even used. When I check on his paint work, I saw some uneven paint work and asked him to re-paint. And he was so reluctant to re-paint, and keep accusing me that I don't know how to judge the quality of the wall paint, and keep saying there's no problem on his paint work. He said his jobs is done. I then asked him, why before that he said needed two days work, and 2 pails of paint. He replied that now he came with two persons, that's why completed fast. Then asked him why only used 1 pail, he replied my condo wall doesn't want to "EAT" the paint. Thus, I asked him to discount, since only do half day. Then, he started accusing me saying I'm not willing to pay him that price. (with his experience, I think he had knew it only takes half day to complete the job). And even THREATEN me if I don't pay, he will ask someone to come and collect from me. Just would like forumers to advice: - if I've been cheated ? - if that's a fair price, why did he quoted differently (workload & paint) in the first place? Thanks. |

The paint is around RM80.
Profit margin 1k? hmm... If he would have used up 2 pail of 18litres as promised, to paint few layers on the wall, to make sure quality is there, I'm sure will pay him that kind of money. so guys out here, just fyi/reminder/beware of this contractor called: Mr. Lim (016xxx4543) - skinny, short, 60s uncle, driving black perdana - bad attitude after paintwork done (reluctant to touch up, even though can see the wall has different tone, he keep accusing my eyes have problem. - will THREATEN you if you don't pay full amount (asked for discount also being scolded) - will twist what he promised you on his work+paint from the beginning this is my bad experience with him, just to share. i think forumers should be alerted/reminded of this kind of cases. Anyway, you guys can go ahead with him as well if you decided to. |

hire some Indon contract worker at RM70 per day. skilled cost maybe RM100 per day. chinese maybe RM120 per day. if small apartment, the price will be proportionately higher. where to hire Indon? go to big hardware shop ! ask them to recommend. they'd usually have phone no of these guys. wanna play safe ? ask who takes the most paint from them. go to local hardware shop to make sure referral is from Indons who live nearby. you don't want to hire some guys based in shah alam, if your project is Ampang. they will somehow hike up their transport cost onto you. buy some paint you supervise them, and there you are are ! then you have to figure out; - transport for the indon, who pays for their lunch - how much water to add to their paint (they will insist more is better as its easier to paint, but it dilutes the effectiveness of the paint and fades faster) - primer necessary or not necessary - make sure they paint the hard to paint places (behind the door, edge of the door, crevices, ceiling board etc) - they don't splatter paint over the floor - why they keep painting the same spot over and over again (because they make more money the slower they are - try negotiating on a project basis than time cost - with them) - they ask you to buy them drinks rclxub.gif - they want to borrow money from you - they want you to introduce more project from them - buy kerosine / turpentine to wash the brush - buy roller - buy 'stick' or aluminium extender for roller to reach the ceiling - buy plastic (to protect the floor) - buy masking tape (to cover the skirting) - buy VOC free paint (higher price) if have children? my experience; labour cost for semi-d painting (internal, external + fence) at RM4,500 exc paint. to see how it works; ask them how many man days they budget. thumbup.gif for paint - you want super cheap - go for Mattex (all hardware shop sell). quality then go for branded ICI, Nippon Life etc. Go get the brochure and see which paint are you convinced. whistling.gif or save yourself trouble and hire a professional ! |

If new condo can try ask the worker doing painting work help u paint. Around 150 per day. A 1000sqft apartment might take 2 days for wall n ceiling excluding door fframe. Paint can buy urself. Look for low VOC paint. Those maxilite is cheap paint n poisonous if inhale too much.

QUOTE(monstar81 @ Mar 31 2015, 07:50 PM) Hi guys, Learn ur lesson ....why must hire ppl and pay 1k , where u can easily do it ?Need advice if I'm being cheated? I was quoted by a Painting contractor RM1.2k to paint the interior (wall only) of my condo. - condo size is 950sqf - to be painted area (Master bedroom, guest room, living hall) - excluding 2 toilets - excluding balcony (abt 30sqf) He mentioned/quoted that: - paint must be bought by him (i cannot buy the paint for him) - need 2 days to complete - need 2 x Maxilite Plus Interior (Waterborne) EMULSION PAINT 18L In the end: - spent 4 hours only to complete the job (2 person) - used 3/4 of FIRST pail of Maxilite Plus Interior (Waterborne) EMULSION PAINT 18L (saw him mix with water as well) - 2nd pail of Emulsion Paint was not even used. When I check on his paint work, I saw some uneven paint work and asked him to re-paint. And he was so reluctant to re-paint, and keep accusing me that I don't know how to judge the quality of the wall paint, and keep saying there's no problem on his paint work. He said his jobs is done. I then asked him, why before that he said needed two days work, and 2 pails of paint. He replied that now he came with two persons, that's why completed fast. Then asked him why only used 1 pail, he replied my condo wall doesn't want to "EAT" the paint. Thus, I asked him to discount, since only do half day. Then, he started accusing me saying I'm not willing to pay him that price. (with his experience, I think he had knew it only takes half day to complete the job). And even THREATEN me if I don't pay, he will ask someone to come and collect from me. Just would like forumers to advice: - if I've been cheated ? - if that's a fair price, why did he quoted differently (workload & paint) in the first place? Thanks. I took 1hour to paint whole living hall and dining ....for 1layer...if whole house, less than 12hours |

Probably just take 2day to finish a condo painting. I took 1hour to paint whole living hall and dining ....for 1layer...if whole house, less than 12hours And you can finish better job than the contractor. Add your final touch. Save the labour cost and you can buy more expensive paint. |

It may take some time and cost to do it...but the result is exceptional!.. For the paint itself.. If my customer wants me to buy the paint, i will charge them another RM 50 - 100 for transportation..No additional charge here and i will show the receipt if need be.. do visit my blog at www.zekpainter.blogspot.com |

QUOTE(ozak @ Jul 2 2016, 08:58 PM) If you apply sealer, you don't need white paint than color paint. Straight away color paint after the seler. Thanks for advise. The contract apply Nippon easy-wash white paint as the original is just a normal maxilite coat, it feel very 'powder-ish' when touches the wall and easily leave hands print.Unless the white color paint is an expensive paint. (Same type as color paint) Otherwise apply a cheap white paint doesn't give strong bond to the color paint layer. |

QUOTE(kengyan @ Jul 2 2016, 10:52 PM) For Nippon paint, 1 layer of sealer, 2 layers of main color paint are very good already. 3 workers, it takes 4 days to complete whole house wall and ceiling paints. Reasonable speed?To verify that fellow is cheating you, just ask him how many person doing the job and how long it will take. |

Hi all,
I was recently engaged one contractor for my entire house renovation - double storey. I am satisfied both their works and quote. I would happy to recommend my contractor - SAM @ 016 - 270 6505 or you may visit their website for more information. If not mistaken, they are only servicing Klang Valley upto Nilai area only. Hope this can help. |

Project rm3,800
Say labour cost rm120/pax (a little high for indon but include meals n transport) = 31.6 days. Say 2 workers then 16 days each. Too many days. My indon fren (2 pax) did a single storey once in 6 days. 20 x 70. Including grill n door. Recalculate: Say 120 x 6days x 2 pax= rm1440 Profit = 3,800 - 1,440 = rm2,360 Wow !!! But this excludes skim coat.. how much is skim coat worth to you? Can you really see if its straight/even/flat. |

Usually a small apartment around 900sqft wall n ceiling can be done in 2 days.. if they want to paint grills and doors add another 1 days sometimes if i need to rush i bring 4 people and if we lucky it can be done in 1 or 2 days.. thats were i raked in profits.. if the surface condition of the wall n ceiling doors n grills is so bad.. i will sugggest the customer do skim coating or remove the old paint altogether.. It may take some time and cost to do it...but the result is exceptional!.. For the paint itself.. If my customer wants me to buy the paint, i will charge them another RM 50 - 100 for transportation..No additional charge here and i will show the receipt if need be.. do visit my blog at www.zekpainter.blogspot.com |

It's a condo, need to repaint porch area, kitchen and room ceilings.. All same white color. I'm unsure which paints to use, so he/she may have to supply the paint as well. Location in KL. Most important is excellent workmanship and affordability. Used some Charlie guy a couple years ago, but paint's like flaking off d.

Hi,
Need advice from sifu My house is 40 years old and the old paint starts to show peeling and looks hideous. Want to know whether should I employ painter or DIY. Only want to do external only.. Anyone know roughly the cost? Terrance house, double storey. I saw YouTube that you need to scrub the old paint. Do those kracher power spray helps? Thanks for advice. |

Thanks for advice. make sure you have ladder that can climb high enough to reach those places you want to paint the steps will be: 1. scrub old paint with scraper or high pressure water spray 2. fix holes, remove old wall plug/nails/screws 3. thoroughly clean up and wipe the wall with water/thinner/acid/cleaner, make sure the surface is as clean as possible 4. mask and cover the areas that you dont want to paint with masking tapes 5. paint 1 or 2 coat of primer if you want longer lasting paint, if you painting on top of existing paint then maybe no need 6. if you change the color from light color to dark color or almost same color, you can directly paint the final paint, minimum 2 coat 6.1 if you change the color from dark to light color, paint a layer of white/grey acrylic emulsion to cover existing color, minimum 1 coat then apply final paint, minimum 2 coat 7. wipe off leftover paint at undesired spots, and cleanup surrounding (this step is very exhausting) if you think you cant do the step above then hire someone else to do it, terrace house need to climb to roof of first floor to paint 2nd floor, make sure the roof is in good condition for you to stand on top and you have long enough stick for the roller to reach higher spot do remember to talk to your neighbor about it and whether they are okay with it, especially the part of the wall at the porch that separate between you and the neighbor hope that helps |

Hi there,
I'm relatively amateur in my experience with painting but have had some, as well as developing skills in art and design etc. I've been asked to paint 4 walls for each room of a total of 10 rooms within one building. Each room will have 1 wall dedicated for some painted art decor. In being asked to do this, I've also been asked to come up with how much I would charge for this to be done. I will obviously include paints, equipment, transport in the sum but I was hoping someone here could help me come up with a reasonable asking price for the completion of this project. Taking into account that I'm not a professional. Any help would be much appreciated! Anyone? Much thanks in advance, JvR |

Taking into account that I'm not a professional. Any help would be much appreciated! Anyone? Much thanks in advance, JvR One condo $1200 labour oni Three condos $3600 labour oni Can quote $4000 for labour only of flat paint. Please add on according to the painted art decor complexity. Bear in mind specialty paints like Momento or Suzuka will need extra time to do nicely. Because you will also probably need to invest in painting tools (roller, tray, ladder, trolley to get the paints on site). Assume that the walls are all ready to be painted and no fixing of holes/defects required. >> Else you need to add on sander (belt for heavy duty, else a rotary also can if its just a couple rooms) - lots of dust. >> If you sand then u need to add in at least a cheap sealer else bare cement will eat all your paint. Assume you have a pickup truck or van to carry all the paints. Note that the labour price excludes paint itself. Depending on how good the paint needs to be, can use cheap matex whites, or if colour is involved - starting from cheap $35 matex colours to atas paints. Paints are not cheap so you will need to get the surface area of the walls to be painted, then work backwards for costing (one 18L can cover how many sq meter and one 18L cost how much). Also consider gloss paint if you also need to do the doors/grills. Professional or not its basically not that hard, its tiring AF. Dilution of paints, for undercoat/first fcoat can mix more water, final coat 10% will give solid colour. This post has been edited by ceo684: Aug 2 2019, 09:18 AM langstrasse liked this post

Has anyone heard of or engage Caveman Wall Makeover before? It’s a group of young men who was into painting mural commercially before they divert into commercial painting jobs. I like to check their credentials and workmanship if any forumers has engaged them before. Thanks

QUOTE(ayamback @ Dec 3 2019, 08:04 AM) Mine is done by my subcontractor using Indonesian workers. Not sure he will do paint job only. One thing you can do is read through the thread to get contacts or go to paint shop to ask. They would know too. In fact there is one paint shop that I visited and the Bangla that works there also freelance. I didn't choose him because he is still more expensive (a little) and it is easier for me to give to my subcontractor |

Just quoted 8.5k for old paint removal and repainting works (wall and ceilings) for 1100 sqft condo unit. Based on the replies in the thread, it seems my received quote is unexpectedly high. Or is it (increased labor cost since need to remove old paint)? Exclude material cost some more.
Since he's my main contractor guy, the painting charge is included in the overall quote, so should I search other painters first and compare the pricing? If yes, what is the estimated good market value for the job? |

I have been quoted RM6,600 to paint internal, external and roof for a double-story house. I have also been quoted RM9,000 to paint the internal and external part only for the same house.

i'm quoted 6.5k (excluding paint) to paint a 20x70 double storey end lot unit, inside and outside including the fencing. is this price reasonable?
also may i know how many layers shall i ask him to include? it's a new house with original developer's paint, which i believe it's emulsion paint. also may i know how much extra $$ i need to budget for the paint itself? the contractor said roughly 3k. not sure if it's enough? thanks |

A vacant house is cheaper than furnished house. Standard coverage is minimum 2 layers. Do not be stingy on paint since you are buying. If it needs 3 layers, go for it. Use your eyes judgement. As for paint price, if too many colours, then there will be more 'wastage'. Buying less is better than more for all colours. Choose a paint shop nearest to property so that any shortage can be purchased immediately. This post has been edited by mini orchard: Oct 4 2022, 08:53 PM |

Base coat not necessary. Existing wall paint from developer considered good as base coat. It is recommended to clean the surface (wall and grille) b4 painting. Painters dont do for you. lowyat101 liked this post
