How much does it cost to paint a 4-5 bedroom house?

This is a question that will have many, many different answers to it.

What is the existing condition of the property?

Has it suffered from years of poor DIY?

Are there layers of wallpaper that needs stripping?

Are there areas of mould and damp need treating etc?

These are just a few of the variables that will incur additional costs involved to achieve a good finish. You will pay for the preparation that is required to obtain an agreeable finish.

If its a relatively new property then generally it will require less preparation.

Another consideration is the type of finish would you like? Different paint finishes cost different amounts, also the paint brand you select will have a bearing on the final costs.

If the whole house is to be wallpapered this will also change the price quoted.

Thirdly is there woodwork to be painted? This can tie in with the amount of preparation required but say if all the woodwork in the property is woodstained and this is to be changed to a white gloss finish, this will cost more than repainting existing white woodwork.
