Total cost of material for Primer, Sealer and 2 Coats : 6.14 Ghs per square meter. All we need is to measure the space to be painted in square meter to determine how much paint is needed for your painting project.

1. Labour Factor

The average output of painting a flat wall (for one painter) has been estimated between 100 to 130 square meters per day. The general agreement in the painting trade has been estimated to 9 hours per day. And 9 hours of painting produces at least 100 M2.

We take 9 hours productive time divide by the performance (100M2) gives 0,09 factor per square meter.

9/100 = 0,09

Adding the wall preparation, sanding and filling cracks, the general agreement consensus seems to be 1/3 of the painting factor 0.09 = 0,03

Labor factor per persona will be 0,03 + 0,09 = 0,12 which will represent an average of all tasks per coat.

1. Workmanship

The working hours are 9H / Day

 1Week = 45 hours

Labour cost per hour is estimsated at 12,50 Ghs

The 45 (Hours) X 12,50 (Cost per hour) = 562,50 Ghs

• Holidays and Sick Leaves (13,50%) = 76 Ghs
• Public insurance (+5,8%) = 32,70 Ghs

Total pay per week is 671,2 Ghs

Amortization is Ghs 1.00 per Hour

We take 671,20 / 45H = 14,91 Ghs ==> Total Labour / Hour.
