Re: Price Per Sq. Ft Knockdown And Orange Peel
Here's what everyone on here seems to be missing..... The $.25 for spraying texture/orange peel or whatever is multiplied by the ceiling or floor sq. Footage. So on a 1000 sg ft house it's $250.00. On the other hand if you get $.34 to hang, mud, texture, and sand it's multiplied by bd sq ft. So on that 1000 sq ft house it would be about 3500 sq ft times $.34 which is around $1200.00 (didn't have calculator estimated) and that's a going rate in the south east.

Re: Price Per Sq. Ft Knockdown And Orange Peel
Here in bc, we charge no less than $500.00 for patchwork, and if we spray a ceiling, its 1000bf its still 500.00 Thinks that we have to remember to some degree is, we need to make money as well, and gc tend to think that its all about them. But they fail to realize that if we do a sh**y job, its their name on the line, as well as ours. You want the job done right dont bitch about a bit of a higher price...
We do a lot of insurance work, and i have discussed with the GC about pricing, and we are still working today, We have had our best start of the year yet...They all know that if they get someone cheap they will be paying someone to fix it..sure we have fly by nighters, but they dont last. If you want quality .....pay the bill..... Just my thoughts boys J
