Painting needs are everywhere:

 Anything from new construction to remodels, repairs, and refreshes needs painting. It’s required both exteriorly and interiorly. Homeowners, landlords, and businesses all utilize painting businesses. In other words, there’s a need for painting services, and that need is growing due to several factors:

The Painting Contractors Association says that there is a serious labor shortage, making it especially attractive to entrepreneurs. With the right skills, planning, and equipment, painters can launch their own careers with remarkable ease.
Ibis World found strong demand for painters in the nonresidential/commercial construction industry — for example, retail buildings, office buildings, and industrial facilities. In general, auxiliary services (like painting and drywall) are having difficulty keeping up with the pace of commercial construction.
A survey done by Sherwin-Williams found that 50% of people hire professional painters for help with hard-to-reach spaces, while 41% feel it’s a job best left to experts. The survey also found that 40% of respondents said they didn’t have time to do it themselves. 

Employment of painters, construction and maintenance is projected to show little or no change from 2022 to 2032.

Despite limited employment growth, about 29,300 openings for painters, construction and maintenance are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Most of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.

Employment:

The expected increase in new construction will continue to create a need for painters. Investors who sell or lease properties also will require painters’ services. However, many homeowners choose to do painting themselves rather than hire workers for it, which will temper employment growth for painters.
