Fair Price Per Square Foot For Painting

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

Re: Fair Price Per Square Foot For Painting

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
