A painting invoice or estimate hinges on three things: square footage of surface, condition of the substrate (prep needed), and product specification (brand, line, sheen). Pricing is typically per square foot of surface, not per hour.

Frequently asked
How do painters charge: by the hour, by the room, or by the square foot?
Most professional painting contractors price by the square foot of surface, then convert internally to hours for crew planning. Square-foot pricing is the easiest format for customers to understand and compare bids.
