How Much Does Move-In/Move-Out Painting Cost?
Every home — and every move — is different. Some homes just need a quick refresh to clean up marks or tone down bold colors. Others need a full deep refurbish with patching, sanding, and major touch-ups. That’s why we don’t do flat-rate packages — instead, we start with your space and your goals.
We’ve painted everything from spotless homes with bold wall colors to lived-in family homes with heavy wear and tear. We’ve helped clients prepping their home for professional real estate photos, and others just looking to make their place feel clean before moving in.
Some of the factors that affect pricing:
Size of the home and number of walls to paint
Condition of the walls (scuffs, dents, stains, repairs needed)
Paint color and type (covering deep tones, using primer, etc.)
Level of wall prep you choose (we offer 3 options — see below!)
Timeline and scheduling needs
We’ll come take a look, walk through your space, and give you a custom quote with no pressure and no guesswork. Our goal is to give you a plan that works for your walls and your wallet.
🖌️ BASIC PAINT SERVICE
One to two coats of paint (depending on wall condition and color coverage)

Need Drywall Repair? We've Got You Covered
Sometimes, it's just one big hole in the kid's room. Or a rough patch from an old shelf that pulled away. Whatever it is — we can fix it.
We offer drywall repair as an add-on to any service level. Whether it's one section or a few rough spots, we’ll assess the damage during your estimate and give you the best solution.
Just let us know during the consult and we’ll walk you through your options — no upsell, just practical advice and quality repairs.
When Should I Book Move-In or Move-Out Painting?
We recommend reaching out as soon as you know your move-in or move-out date. Because we’re a small local team that takes pride in doing great work, our schedule can fill up quickly — especially during the busy moving seasons.
While we can’t always promise an exact day, we’ll work with you to find a timeframe that fits. We ask for a little flexibility, and in return, you get quality work and respectful service.
We also offer weekend service when available and flexible start times to make your timeline smoother.
Should I Paint Before Selling My House in Cochrane?
Absolutely. A fresh coat of paint is one of the most affordable and effective ways to make your home more appealing to buyers. Clean, neutral walls help buyers imagine themselves in the space — and can even lead to stronger offers.
We frequently work with Cochrane homeowners who are preparing to list. Whether you just need a quick refresh or full wall repairs, we can help your home put its best face forward.
