Painting my house

littletiger · 2009-02-28 13:11:26

Hi, I have an 1100 sqaure foot house in the city. A few months ago I was quoted 1000 euro (incl paint) for painting inside (walls, ceilings and skirting boards). At the time I thought it was a bit steep and have left it until now. Any ideas on whether this is a reasonable price or would I get it done cheaper now.

I'd say you would have much better quotations in these times, never go with your first quotation and make sure they are as reliable as possible!
