For painting priced per m², paint, tape and protection are listed separately at 187.50–250 SEK/m² including VAT. Cladding timber is listed separately at 625 SEK/m² including VAT. The material cost for standalone filling and the price for full window restoration need to be specified in the quote. Scaffolding, access and additional repairs are assessed for the individual project.
Use the price calculator for your painting project for an estimate, and check which elements are included. A quote needs to be based on the work you actually want to commission.
