IF you can't find the right price and choose D.I.Y., do yourself and family a favor and find someone to hold the ladder.. even at 20 bucks a hour it's worth it. Been there.. didn't do it.. been pay'n for it ever since.Im gettin on in yrs. I painted my house twice. By brush. Good paint, sherwin Williams once and gladden once. Probably got 7 coats on it. Probably can get away with spraying now. These prices are scaring me, i figgered 2500-3000$. I can do it myself, even buying a sprayer it won't cost much. 8 gal for siding, another 3 for trim. 5k$ for 3 days work is a lil much. I tracked my hours last time and was around 80hrs for whole job. By brush ans ladder.ill get some quotes, but i wont pay more then 3k.

Agreed^^^^Sounds like yall have had good prices. Most quotes I've heard lately around Here have been around the 20 to 30k mark for new houses in the 2000 to 3000 Sq ft range.
Let me know if you find someone, we are in the same area and need trim work done.Pondering having my house painted. Ranch w daylite basement. Lil bit of siding/trim to replace. What kind of cost am I lookin at? Monroe/ Walton area. tia
