Normally, the patching, painting, and floor work are repairs and the other expenses are permanent improvements. However, because the work gives your property a new use, the entire remodeling job is a permanent improvement and its cost is added to the basis of your property.
A painting contractor will charge $513 to make minor repairs and apply a primer and latex texture paint finish to a 300-square-foot ceiling, or in a 15-by-20-foot room. That price includes the material and labor. You can buy the patching compound, primer, paint and tools for $80 and do it yourself, saving 84 percent. Youâll find the materials sold at paint stores and in the paint sections of hardware stores and home centers.
