[quote=jimmyle]I just got a quote for around $1,400 for (6″ crown + labor and paint included) for my whole 1826 sq ft single story house.
My house has high ceilings even in the bedrooms and there are many weird angles. I think I will hire this guy rather than do it myself.
With the cost of buying materials at around $700 (more waste when I do it) + $100 for delivery and paint. I think the extra $600 is worth it because he will do a much better job that I can.[/quote]
Where did you get $700 for materials from? My house is bigger than yours and I think I spent about $400 tops for crown. Lets assume a 10×10 bedroom, that’s 100 sq-ft but only 40 linear foot. A 20×20 living room is 400 sq-ft but only 80 linear foot. I think I spent no more than $1000 in molding materials for doors/windows casings, baseboards, wainscotting, chair rails, & crown. This is for a house that’s bigger than yours as well.
