How much should it cost per door and frame to re-roll fresh coat of paint? Did all the baseboards myself but want to hand the baton to someone else for the doors.

Paint them yourself as they are much easier than the baseboards and I anticipate a $$$ estimate. Pop the pins, remove the hardware, and paint outside. Very easy and they will look amazing!

Even better borrow a paint sprayer and they will be done really fast.

I agree. If you can do the baseboards by yourself, the doors should be easy.

Dubi is correct. Just pop the pins, remove the hardware, and paint outside. Maybe consider getting a cheap sprayer from harbor freight to help out and speed it up

If I don't go sprayer route, what's the best brush to get to avoid paint brush streaks? I will tackle this a few doors at a time during rare down time…

maybe add Floetrol to the paint to reduce streaks?

4" foam rollers for cabinets and doors. They're like $6 for a handle and 2 rollers at HD. The foam won't leave streaks even if the roller skips

We just had all of ours painted. Painter quoted $45 for each door and trim for oil based paint and $90 each for non-oil based paint (higher b/c the extra prep).

I've been painting interior doors lately, takes about 30-45 minutes to do a coat on two doors that's cleanup and everything. I've been putting 3 coats with foam rollers, need to do baseboards and door trim but really not looking forward to that. Sanding old patchy paint in some areas and wood puddy imperfections.

Just using the cheap 6 panel hollow core doors. A nicer door without all the panels would paint faster.

Started painting myself. Got through 6 in 2 days. Whoa headache from the fumes.
