No not that kind, get you minds out of the gutter!

I have a gal who wants the inside of her home painted.

She wants a bid. Painting is the one trade that I have always done myself and have normally just included it in the project bid or done time and materials. Does anyone out there have a clue on say $/sq ft?

I have furnishings to move and wall repairs to be made and textures to be matched, that I can charge by the hour. But just the painting has always been a mystery, the painting contractors, that I know, are like roofers. That is, unwilling to give a price w/o making it a firm bid.

I need the work, the lady is a friend, I want to give her a fair price that we can both be satisfied with.
