I need to skim coat and paint a pre-war coop apartment (as part of a much larger job). I have so far received one quote, which is charging 60K for skim coating and painting. Walls are not in such terrible shape considering the apartment is pre-war. We are talking about 1200 sq. ft. give or take. This seems extraordinarily high. Does someone have any good recommendations? Because it is a coop, I believe that the person would have to be licensed.
