New construction ( bare walls) or existing home ? Makes a big difference.

Existing home.


I have no insight, but i would guess an empty new construction, bare wall, already protected and covered floor is gonna be cheaper than painting an existing home where the painter is having to work around momma n' em, the furniture, the assorted knick knacks and pictured walls, that were suppose to be removed prior to starting

When painting a new construction, you have to prime walls and ceilinngs, caulk EVERYTHING , sand a lot, paint walls two coats , ceilings two coats, paint trim from scratch two coats. Existing home may not need any caulk, and sanding, may not need ceilings painted, walls only and maybe trim one trim coat, unless changing colors. I'd say there's more involved in a new one ……….if it's done right.
