   It’s incredibly simple, and incredibly frequently done absolutely fucking terribly by people who don’t know what they’re doing. My wife painted two bathrooms and a bedroom in our house with her “yasss girlllll” friends and it’s fucking embarrassing that I (a now former professional painter with 5+ years full-time experience) live here. 😐

   The fact that professional painters can also be absolutely fucking terrible is also true I’m not gonna go into the long wind details of our post, hurricane Helene renovations, and the painters contracted by our contractor, and of course not picked directly by us absolutely fucked up every bit of painting jobs

   I've owned a painting company for 20 years, I know how it works. No professional painter is using a fucking pan BTW. I've been the small guy and I've been the big guy with lots of overhead. Claiming a small guy is going to charge more for a small job compared to a big company with lots of overhead is an ignorant take, it doesn't make any sense. No need for scaffolding on a job like this, 14 foot ceilings can be easily reached with a 10 foot step. Again, most likely this quote if from a big company with lots of overhead that doesn't really need the work. Small guy would knock this job out for a fair price easy peasy.

   It's definitely a high reward, low cost, low skill level to do it yourself. It's one of the first skills to gain as a homeowner. Professional painters will definitely do a better job than you. But it's not difficult to do. It just takes time and patience to tape up and clean. The results of a good amateur paint job are acceptable to me.

   You got an FU quote. Painting 1 room is a small job for a professional painter, so the outrageous quote is intended to get you to say no so they can stay focused on bigger multi-day jobs, but they'll also gladly take your money if you're willing/dumb enough to pay such an exorbitant amount.
