Professional painters usually charge about $300 for a room, at least in my area. And you have to provide the paint, and it needs to be a top-quality brand (figure one gallon at $25 to $30).





Bathrooms are pretty hard areas to work in, so don't expect a bargain.How much to paint a small bathroom?
We just painted a 5x5 powder room and used less than one gallon painting over builder's white and did not include the ceiling. Had we the one gallon would have been plenty. I paid $36 for the gallon but it was one of the higher priced paints. I could have paid less for other companies but I liked the colors better in the one I chose. If you are painting over white, 2 gallons should work for you but you might want 3 just to be sure. It's nice to have touch up paint later. Bathrooms are a pain to paint I will have to say.

A gallon will get you one coat on but I'd do 2 coats, especially in a bathroom.
