Painters in Staten Island, NY

Each painter listed on this page has an active license number on file in the ServHom data. ServHom does not independently re-verify or re-check licenses in real time, so you should confirm the license directly with the relevant New York licensing agency, such as NYC DCWP or NYC DOB, before hiring.

Painting costs in Staten Island vary based on the size of the job, ceiling height, number of coats, and how much surface prep, patching, and priming is needed. Interior work, exterior work, trim and door painting, and older-building lead-safe handling all affect the final price, so it is best to compare at least two written quotes for your specific project.

Ask the painter to confirm their license type covers residential painting or home improvement, and request proof of insurance. For older buildings, ask for lead-safe certification. Get a written scope of work that lists prep steps, number of coats, and the paint product being used, and compare at least two written quotes for non-urgent work.

For homes and buildings built before 1978, federal EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting rules require lead-safe certified work. In New York City, Local Law 1 also applies to many pre-1960 apartments where a young child lives. If your building is older, ask the painter for lead-safe certification and confirm the applicable rules with the relevant New York agency.

ServHom orders painters on this page using license records, contact data, profile completeness, and a ranking score. The ordering is money-blind, meaning businesses cannot pay to rank higher on this page.

Most painters charge based on the scope of work rather than a single flat rate. Key factors include ceiling height, number of coats, how much prep, patching, and priming is needed, and whether the job is interior or exterior. For an accurate idea of cost, request a written quote that details the prep work, number of coats, and paint product.

The cost to paint a 2000 square foot house in Staten Island depends on interior versus exterior work, ceiling height, number of coats, and how much prep, patching, or priming is needed. Older homes may also require lead-safe handling, which can add to the cost. Because these factors vary, it is best to get at least two written quotes for your specific house.

The cost to paint a 12 by 12 room depends on ceiling height, number of coats, and how much prep, patching, and priming is needed. Trim, doors, and detail work also affect the price. For a reliable estimate, ask for a written quote that lists the prep steps, number of coats, and paint product.
