What You Can Expect to Pay for House Painting in Metro Detroit
If you’re a homeowner in Farmington Hills, Novi, Bloomfield Hills, Livonia, or anywhere in Metro Detroit, one of the first questions you’ll ask when considering a paint job is: how much is this going to cost?
The honest answer is that every project is different. But after 25+ years and over 5,000 completed projects across Southeast Michigan, we can give you reliable ranges to help you plan and budget.
Interior Painting Costs in Metro Detroit
For a typical Metro Detroit home, interior painting costs depend primarily on the number of rooms, ceiling height, and the condition of your walls.
- Single room: $300 – $800 (walls, ceiling, trim)
- 3-4 rooms: $1,200 – $3,500
- Full interior (whole house): $2,500 – $6,000+
- Kitchen cabinets: $1,800 – $4,500
These ranges include surface preparation, primer where needed, two coats of premium paint (we use Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore), and complete cleanup.
Exterior Painting Costs
Michigan’s freeze-thaw cycles, humidity, and UV exposure mean exterior paint takes a beating. Proper prep work is critical — and it’s where most of the cost (and value) lies.
- Small home (under 1,500 sq ft): $2,500 – $4,500
- Average home (1,500-2,500 sq ft): $3,000 – $7,000
- Large home (2,500+ sq ft): $6,000 – $12,000+
Factors That Affect Your Price
1. Square Footage and Layout
More walls, more paint, more time. Homes with complex layouts, cathedral ceilings, or lots of trim work will naturally cost more.
2. Surface Condition
A well-maintained home may need minimal prep. But peeling paint, water damage, or bare wood means extra preparation.
3. Paint Quality
We always recommend premium paints because they last longer, cover better, and resist Michigan weather.
