Interior painting with published rates for our three standard packages, worked out from the floor area of the rooms you want painted. Clean lines, covered floors and furniture, and a tidy home at the end of every day. Send photos of each room to start.
Residential painting, priced by the size of the rooms. The three standard packages get the same preparation, protection, cleanup and warranty; the difference is which surfaces are included. Signature Finish adds enhanced prep and premium coatings. Move the slider to see the total for your floor area.
Set your painted floor area, pick a package and add your town for a typical minimum. It runs on the same rates as the cards.
The three standard packages follow one formula. Take the package start, which pays for up to 100 sq ft of floor, then add the rate for each sq ft beyond it. Extra doors and extra work are priced separately. The examples below assume walls in normal condition and no higher minimum at your address, before HST.
Why floor area? You can check it with a tape measure. A price per room or per sq ft of wall counts something else, so compare totals for the same rooms.
For room-by-room detail, read our guide to interior painting cost in Ontario →The rates are ranges, but your written price is one number. It says which rate applies to each room and why.
You choose the colours and give us the codes. The exact product is named in your specification, so you can look it up before we start.
We use the finished floor area of the rooms we paint. Paint rooms totalling 900 sq ft in a 2,500 sq ft home and the price uses 900.
Doors and extras count toward the total. If that total comes in below the minimum for your address, you pay the minimum, and your written price lists exactly what it covers.
A lived-in home, ceilings up to 8 ft, previously painted drywall in normal condition. Colour changes are included when two coats cover.
Most homes can be priced from photos alone. If something in them is unclear, we ask before we put a number on paper. A written price keeps both sides on the same page.
That can be a fair quote. To compare like for like, check what each one includes: how many coats, whether ceilings are in, what prep is listed, and whether the warranty is in writing.
A price over the phone would be a guess. Photos show the state of your walls, and that decides which rate applies to each room.
Getting set up, protecting the floors and cleaning up take nearly as long for one small room as for a bigger job. The start price covers that, so a small job gets the same care. Every sq ft beyond the start is charged at the published rate.
Start with the walls. Fresh Start paints walls only. Ceilings and trim can follow later as a separate job, priced in writing, though doing them together usually costs less.
We paint homes in 29 cities and regions of Southern Ontario from our base in Mississauga: Peel, Halton, Toronto, York, Durham, Hamilton, Niagara, Waterloo, Wellington and beyond. Pick your region on the map for local notes.
Your price per sq ft is the same in every town. Only the smallest project changes, and your written price shows what it covers.
Each of the three standard packages starts at $700, $800 or $970, which covers the first 100 sq ft of floor. After that it is $2.65 to $4.70 a sq ft, before HST, depending on the package and the walls. Extra doors are $120 each, and the minimum can be higher at a farther address.
Booked on its own near our base, a 10×14 bedroom with 140 sq ft of floor is $806 for walls in normal condition, before HST. At a farther address, a higher minimum may apply instead.
It depends on the floor area you want painted, not the size of the house. Over 3,000 sq ft of painted floor, we price after a visit.
Length times width of each room we paint, added together. A 12×12 bedroom counts as 144 sq ft.
The low end assumes painted drywall in normal shape. The high end pays for the extra filling, sanding and priming that damaged walls need.
Yes: the package start is the smallest job, and it already includes 100 sq ft. Some farther addresses have a higher minimum; tap your town on the map to see the typical one.
The rate per sq ft does not. It is the same everywhere we work, and there is no distance charge. What can change is the smallest project: some farther addresses have a higher one, and the written price shows what it covers.
No. Prices are before HST (13%). The calculator shows the total with HST too.
Usually, yes. One setup covers both: floors are protected once and furniture moves once. Full Refresh prices walls and ceilings at a single rate, so the ceilings never carry a second setup.
Yes, professional-grade paint and the usual materials. A premium line on a standard package is quoted at the difference in material cost; Signature Finish uses premium coatings throughout.
Ceilings come with Full Refresh. Baseboards and door and window casings come with Complete Home, along with its first door. Any other standard interior door is $120, painted on both sides.
Two finish coats are standard in every package. Ceilings get ceiling paint, not wall paint.
Yes, any colours you like. Send the codes with your photos, and we will flag in writing if a change needs a primer coat first.
Additional work (major repairs, closets, high ceilings, stairwells, specialty finishes) is identified and priced in writing before work begins. Nothing is added without your approval.
Most single rooms wrap in 1–2 days. A whole home gets its schedule in writing with the price.
Clear small items, valuables and anything fragile from the rooms. We move and cover light furniture ourselves, and you can stay in the home while we work.
Usually not; photos or a short video call are enough. If a visit is needed, it is free anywhere we work, Signature Finish included, and you are under no obligation to book.
Yes to both: a written 2-year warranty on our workmanship, and we carry liability insurance.
By then, you have your specification, price and warranty terms in writing.
