Interior painting in Vancouver
Walls, ceilings, doors and trim in condos and houses, with the patching and prep done properly first, by a team that also handles the drywall and ceilings.
Interior painting in Vancouver: quick answers
Short answers to the questions we hear most.
- Do you take painting-only jobs?
- Yes. Along with full renovations, QUAY takes interior painting as a standalone job, from a few rooms to a whole condo or house. The minimum job is $2,500.
- What does interior painting cost?
- It depends on how many rooms, whether ceilings, doors and trim are included, and how much patching is needed. In a Richmond condo we repainted the entire home, from ceilings to doors and baseboards, alongside a bathroom renovation; the full project was about $28,600 before GST.
- Can you paint after removing a popcorn ceiling?
- Yes. In a condo near Science World popcorn removal, new lighting, blinds and paint came to about $16,000. Popcorn ceiling removal runs about $6 per square foot with a $2,500 minimum job, and we test for asbestos first.
- How is it priced and guaranteed?
- You get a fixed-price proposal before work starts, and completed work is backed by our 365-day workmanship warranty.
A clean finish starts with the prep
Most of a good paint job happens before the first coat: protecting floors and furniture, patching and sanding, and getting ceilings and trim ready. Done properly, the finish looks even in every light.
QUAY Construction paints condos, townhomes and houses across Vancouver, as part of a renovation or as a standalone job with a $2,500 minimum.

Paint through a whole West End suite
In this West End sub-penthouse we renovated the whole suite: an open kitchen, two bathrooms, an expanded laundry room and a new fireplace insert with a clean drywall surround. Engineered hardwood, pot lights, heaters and paint ran through every room.
The whole condo came to about $188,000 before GST and was on site from March to early May 2024.
What decides the painting job.
A few practical things set the cost and the result more than the paint itself.
- Scope: walls only, or ceilings, doors, baseboards and casings too
- Surface condition: patching, drywall repairs and sanding before paint
- Ceilings: smooth, textured or popcorn ceilings that need removal first
- Colour changes: dark to light or accent walls may need more coats
- Access and timing: furniture, occupied homes and condo building rules

Painting cost is driven by scope, prep and ceilings, not just the number of rooms.
