[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It included paint and he also had to go get it all himself too, plus supplies. [/quote] Paint is very expensive, good stuff could be $100 per gallon or more. Plus.the painter is running a business, paying taxes, insurance, travel time, gas, etc. And dont forget they also are working to make some profit they can save just like the rest of us.[/quote] Yes, you are paying for their commute to you. If you are 1 hour from them each way, trust me they are charging you somehow. I live in an area where it's a long drive around or you wait and take a ferry. Any contractor that is not "local" charges for the travel time to you and the ferry fees. So do interior designers. [/quote]
