Need a single room repainted, or your whole house refreshed? We provide interior painting and house painting services across Southern Ontario in three service tiers: Standard, Premium, and Signature. All tiers come with proper surface prep, two coats, and a written warranty. The difference is how thorough the prep is, what paint goes on the wall, and how long the warranty lasts.

01

Drop sheets on every floor

Heavy-duty drop sheets cover all flooring in and around the work area before anything else happens.

Furniture moved & covered

Furniture moves to the centre of the room under plastic. Trim, outlets, and edges get carefully masked.

03

One area at a time

We work area by area so the rest of your home stays usable. Dust and disruption stay contained.

04

Daily cleanup, not an afterthought

At the end of every day we vacuum, wipe down, and put everything back. You see progress, not a mess.

05

Schedule set up front

You get a clear schedule before we start, so you always know which rooms we are working on and when.

Interior Painting Cost: What Drives the Price

Three factors set the final price on every interior painting project:

1. Square footage of floor area. Bigger rooms mean more wall and ceiling surface to cover. We measure floor area because it’s repeatable and verifiable. Wall-area pricing leaves room for disagreement over what counts. Floor area is the standard most professional painters in the GTA use.

2. Scope of surfaces. Walls-only painting is the entry point. Adding ceilings increases the price by roughly 30–40%. Walls + ceilings + trim + doors add another 20–30%. Cabinet refinishing is priced separately by linear foot of cabinet face, since the prep effort is in a different league.

3. Prep level required. A previously well-painted wall with minor scuffs paints fast. A wall with 30 patches, peeling old paint, water stains, and uneven texture takes longer to prep than to paint. This is the biggest variable between Standard and Premium tiers.

For a 1,500 sq ft home repaint at the Premium tier with walls, ceilings, and trim, you’re looking at roughly $8,250–$10,500. If you’ve gotten quotes that came in dramatically lower (say, under $2/sq ft), that’s usually a sign someone is skipping prep, using contractor-grade paint, or planning to bill add-ons mid-project.

Paints We Work With

We use professional-grade paint in all tiers. No contractor-grade products. Every brand below is what working residential painters in the GTA reach for — and they hold up for years on a properly prepped wall.

Premium & Signature tier:

  • Benjamin Moore — Aura, Regal Select, Advance (for trim and cabinets)
  • Sherwin-Williams — Emerald, Duration Home, ProClassic
  • Dulux — Diamond, Lifemaster
  • Flügger (on request) — Danish premium brand with strong eco-credentials and exceptional durability

Standard tier:

  • Behr Premium Plus and Behr Marquee
  • PPG — Diamond, Timeless

For specialty needs like high-moisture rooms, low-VOC for nurseries, or scrubbable kitchen-and-bath finishes, we pick within these lines based on the job. Already have a preferred colour or brand? Bring it. Want help selecting? We’ll walk through it during the quote visit.

Interior painting FAQ.

How long does an interior painting project take?

A single bedroom (around 10×12 ft) takes 1–2 days. A standard living room or open kitchen runs 2–3 days. A whole-house repaint (3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living/dining, hallways) is typically 1–2 weeks. We set out the schedule in the written quote before any work starts.

Can we stay in our home while it is being painted?

Yes. We do most interior painting while you stay in the home. We work one area at a time and keep furniture, floors, and the rest of the house protected. Daily cleanup keeps disruption contained.

Should I repaint my new construction home?

If you’ve moved into a builder-grade new build in the GTA or surrounding area, the paint on your walls is likely a primer-paint hybrid. It’s flat, low-coverage, and hard to clean. Most owners of new builds want a proper refresh within the first 1–2 years. We offer new construction repaints, phased or all at once.

What paints do you use?

The Standard tier uses Behr Premium Plus and PPG. The Premium tier uses Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams, and Dulux. The Signature tier can include Flügger on request. The exact product and finish for each surface is listed on your quote.

Do you paint older heritage homes?

Yes. Older homes — common in central Toronto neighbourhoods, parts of Hamilton, and small-town cores across the GTA — often have plaster walls and detailed wood trim. That kind of surface needs extra prep, and we build the prep into the quote.

Do you offer any kind of guarantee?

Yes. Standard tier: 2-year workmanship warranty. Premium tier: 5-year. Signature tier: 7-year. If something is not right at the final walkthrough, we fix it before you pay.

Are you insured?

Yes. IntraBuild carries general liability insurance. We can provide proof of coverage before work starts — just ask during the quote stage.

Do you charge extra to travel?

No. The written quote is the full price for your project. There is no separate travel fee — whether your home is in Mississauga or out near the edges of our service area.

Do you move furniture?

For most rooms, yes. We move furniture to the centre, cover it, and put it back when we’re done. For heavy or fragile pieces (pianos, large armoires, gym equipment), we’ll ask you to handle those. We don’t disassemble built-ins.

One coat or two?

Always two. In practice, two coats are the only way to get a finish that holds up and looks consistent in every light. This is included in every quote, all tiers.

Do you have eco-friendly or low-VOC paint options?

Yes, across all tiers. Benjamin Moore Natura is zero-VOC and zero-emissions; most other premium products are low-VOC. Important for nurseries, asthma-sensitive households, and anyone who’d rather not smell paint for a week after the job.

Can you paint over wallpaper?

Sometimes. If the wallpaper is well-adhered and smooth, we can prime over it. If it’s peeling, textured, or vinyl-coated, it needs to come off first. That’s a separate scope we’ll quote.
