I'm considering hiring some family friends to paint a 1500 square foot room and install vinyl flooring in a medium-sized kitchen. They quoted me $1,000 for the whole job, but I'm starting to wonder if that's too low. Should I just go ahead and pay them $2,000 instead?

Honestly, $1,000 sounds like a pretty solid deal for that work, especially if they do a good job. I'd say if you're happy with the results, throw in a nice tip for them!
Yeah, $1,000 seems fair! Just keep in mind that professional painters might cost a lot more, like $5-600 for a smaller room. If they're doing a good job as friends, $1,000 is a sweet deal.
I paid around $2,200 for painting and flooring in an 1800 sq ft space. If you're getting quality work, spending a bit more than their quote could be worthwhile, but it all depends on their experience level!

Thanks for the input! They claim to be experienced, so I might just stick with their quote and treat them afterwards.
