You drink a whole bottle of absinthe baby and all you'll be seeing is the coroner! (though if you do ascribe to the whole notion of heaven...you may well get to meet the big guy that way. I don't know you, so it's not for me to judge which direction you're headed in.)
The contractor cost to paint exterior siding is $1,957 and the do-it-yourself cost is $275 with an 85 percent saving.
If your existing paint job is in pretty good shape, you can expect to be able to paint 400 square feet of siding per gallon of paint. If you have a lot of bare wood showing on your home, the first coat is only going to cover about 200 square feet.nother factor that can affect your exterior paint costs quite a bit is the type of paint you decide to use. Just about every paint manufacturer has different grades of exterior paint and sometimes there is a pretty big difference in the pricing, but the cost per gallon only tells part of the story.
