    Be cheaper to have someone in to paint it.

    how big is the house?
    cost of sprayer versus maybe two extra days labour.... labour is cheap at the moment

    Looking for the same in Galway.

    Would the heating need to be on long before starting painting ?

    We had ours spray painted about 14 months ago, internally house is 3000sq ft. No joinery first fix at that time and stairs were concrete so no need to cover anything. 2 coats of white sprayed on walls and ceiling done in one day by two men, two vaulted ceilings were 16ft high.
    Cost -£750

    Ive always rathered a roller/brush as it seems to fill the areas better. May use more paint but find it gives a real good covering and base for other coats. Plus considering the amount of water I've seen painters add to spraying paint i often wonder if it seals anything at all.
