Exterior painting pricing, from wall area
No walk-around with a wheel. The range comes from the paintable wall area.
What gets measured
Net wall area
Wall height by story, minus windows and doors, minus the roof overhang — the paintable surface, in square feet.
What the homeowner answers
- How many stories
- Exterior wall type: stucco, wood or siding, or a mix
- Current paint: faded but intact, some peeling, or lots of peeling
- Include trim, fascia and eaves
1,405sq ftpaintable wall area, sample house
What you set
A $/sq ft rate by story, multipliers for wall type and paint condition, a trim percentage on top, and a job minimum.
Every number is yours, edited in the dashboard's pricing tab — nothing here is invented by us.
Worth knowing
- Peeling paint and mixed wall types mean more prep. The multipliers are yours to set from jobs you've actually priced.
- A detached garage or shop paints as its own one-story building.
