Painting & Drywall

Paint is the cheapest transformation in renovation — if you prep right. Our painting and drywall guides cover interior and exterior painting costs per square foot, 2026 color guidance, pro technique (cutting in, rolling, sprayers), drywall hanging, taping, and patching holes of every size. Includes finish comparisons (flat vs. eggshell vs. satin), lead-paint safety for pre-1978 homes, and when a $200 DIY job should really be a pro’s $800 day.
