If you are interested in having some decorative
painting work done, here's how the process works-

Step 1

LET'S MEET TO DISCUSS YOUR IDEAS

---

The first question many people have is "how much does a mural cost?" There are several factors which determine the cost of a job. Those factors include size of the area to be painted, the amount of detail in an image and the style of painting. The amount of detail in an image determines how much time is spent on the job. For instance, a depiction of a flower vase would not require as much time as a life-like depiction of a flowery meadow. Other factors include the location of the space to be painted-is it a ceiling or wall? How large is the space to be painted? In consideration of these many factors, I prefer to meet with you in person to discuss these issues and to view the area to be painted. This meeting is important because it also allows us to discuss your ideas and, together, we develop an exciting image you will enjoy for many years to come! For this reason, I am happy to provide you a free estimate for the job at our initial meeting. There is no obligation on your part. There is a minimum charge of $300 per job.

Step 2

THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE IDEA WITH SKETCHES

---

At our initial meeting, you may choose to proceed with the development of sketches. AT THAT TIME, A $60 DEPOSIT IS REQUIRED. THIS FEE COVERS THE COST OF THE PENCIL SKETCHES AND IS NON-REFUNDABLE. This amount does get credited towards the final cost of the job and is deducted from the balance due at completion. Color sketches can also be provided at additional cost ($80). After 2-3 weeks, we meet again to review sketches. We may make some revisions at that time. Since the sketches you'll review are based on the original estimate provided at our initial meeting, any additions to the sketch may require a revised estimate. Once we have a wonderful image, we then proceed to make the room spectacular! (If you decide to change the overall design direction, an additional $60 is required to create a new set of sketches and the original fee is forfeited.)

Step 3

SCHEDULING THE JOB

---

Once we have finalized the idea, we determine a date to begin work. At that time, a 50% deposit is due. This allows me to secure your spot on the calendar and to purchase supplies necessary to complete the job.

Step 4

COMPLETION OF THE JOB

---

With just 3 easy steps, you have a beautiful room that is guaranteed to wow everyone! The image you saw on paper comes to life on a grand scale! On the day of completion, the remaining balance is due. Payment can be made by check or by VISA I MASTERCARD. If you decide to make any additions to the walls that are not part of the original sketch, there is a minimum charge of $50. The total cost of any revision is determined by the amount of time required to implement the change. No job is considered complete without the homeowner feeling overjoyed with the results!
