I'm a painter sometimes-- always use a Wall Shield flat white for ceilings.

A good painter can paint that whole space in 3-5 hours and to re-floor that much space might take 6 hours if you work fast.

So You know what to happen land price in south bay right, once this land is owned by Lockheed guy now it's the area owned by Nvidia folks LOL These are the reason why even painter in this area can purchase 1 mil house LOL

According to the painter he has put 4 coats of primer and 2 coasts of paint (whitish color) and the wood grain color is bleeding through.

The below quote from a painter came in at $8800.

It looks worse in daylight I am afraid.On the plus side the locks were changed today and we went shopping for flooring and got some numbers for painters.

Need some advice here.Hired a painter to paint a vacant property.Never worked with him before.Not a big job contract about $1000 plus materials.Painter says on first day he can get more done if he can stay over at the vacant property, he can bring in a sleeping bag and work longer hours.I don't think this is a good idea.First I have some power tools at the place.I really don't think I want him sanding the ceiling at 3am...I don't want to hand over the keys either.There may be liaility issues as well.Thoughts, bad idea or am I being too paranoid and is not really a big deal?

Having been a professional painter ( union schooled and non union ) I feel that I should throw my 2 cents into this topic. 1.)

since you dont have Menards in Texas, i would steer you to Sherwin Williams Promar 200, its the same as the Conco Product I have been using since 2009, great coverage, and reasonable price, around $15/gal, in our market, the high end stuff doesnt seem to do any better, I have used it and my painters have, and they love how it covers, flows and cuts.
