Painters: common questions
How long does an interior paint job last?
About 5–10 years in most rooms, less in kitchens, bathrooms and kids' rooms. Exterior paint usually lasts 5–10 years depending on sun and weather.
Is paint included in the quote?
Usually, but not always. Ask whether the quote includes paint and primer, which brand and finish, and how many coats.
