Our painting services are priced “by the job” as frequently as possible, but some jobs are billed hourly, and others are a combination of the two, for example wall paper removal could be an hourly billled task, with the remaining painting all done for a set price. Other hourly billing tasks typically relate to wall repairs, sanding/refinishing, and design work or artistic work. In the event of hourly billing, we always try to establish a range on the contract, up front. This is done in good faith, and is based on our prior experience.
