Labor only per coat, can anyone tell me what would be a fair price to charge per square foot to paint a ceiling with light texture?

Thank you

50 cents per squ. foot per coat flat white with no repair work or stains. That's in Utah. Good Luck. Mopaint

first coat is ALWAYS free man - that's going/standard

second coat costs whatever the materials from the first coat were.

as long as you break even, you'll be alright
