What Does Commercial Painting Cost in Indianapolis?
Commercial painting costs in Indianapolis typically range from $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot for exterior work, and $1.00 to $3.50 per square foot for interior painting, depending on surface condition, prep work required, paint quality, and project complexity.
