I got quotations for painting 1500 sqft terrace, indoor include ceiling....

quotation 1 - RM6000, i provide paint
quotation 2 - 5700, 2 color they provide paint

Unless Quote2 has specified the paint they will use, its prudent to provide your own paint as you will at least know what goes onto your walls.
My 2 cents

Hahaha... Quotation 2: What kind of paint they provide?

Dont go for option 2.

Get more quotes for Option 1. Chinese painters ?

1st of all, what paint they provide?
How many coats they're painting?
Got remove/wash old paint of external walls?
Got apply sealer?

For old house, actually pre-paint preparation works took the most time.

For a 28ft long wall, just spraying off the old paint using a pressure jet took me 4.5 hours.

Juz for comparison,

My recent renovation I'm currently doing

I got charged RM 2,000 for whole house

Condo, 1.2k sq ft, indoor only, walls, ceilings, doors, door frame, skirting

They provide the paint I can choose colour from catalogues - Nippon/Jotun easy wash

22x70, terrace

Outdoor only include, gutter, gate etc
Using nippon weather shield

indon worker (ownself) + paint + etc = 3k (if not mistaken, need to check again)

Option 2 provide Nippon paint

What service do i need to ask them got provide or not? if not i think they will just pain on top of old paint?

hihi can share me the contact? my sorhai contractor quote me 10k (22*75 double storey, indoor + outdoor walls), i kenot..now finding alternatives

10k is market rate for painting whole house. Include 2 layers of branded paint

thing is the 10k is just labour..not yet include paint.

Can share contact? Which area?
