How much does it cost to paint a ceiling?

Do you paint the ceiling yourself or hire a professional?

The average ceiling painting project requires standard painting equipment that some homeowners may already have in their arsenal of DIY supplies.

The Supplies needed for an average ceiling repaint are:

• drop cloths
• plastic
• tape
• paint tray
• roller and roller nap
• extension pole
• paintbrush
• paint
  • The average gallon of good ceiling paint will cover approximately 325 square feet of smooth ceiling surface.

The cost to hire a professional to paint a ceiling depends on a couple of items:

1. Ceiling height
2. size
3. condition
4. What is in the room (empty, furniture, texture condition

The cost to paint smooth 8 foot high ceiling in a room that has no furniture,  inclusive of paint and supplies.
