New fan here. Honestly, i miss the organization, and the white board. I only just say this. Not too mention, if you're not doing math, you're not a builder, or a professional painter. Yes, fixed price helps for a quick thing, but square footage is key for walls! Okay, ill shut up now! You just said everything i was thinking....i should have waited until the end of the video to comment... my mistake! Great video as usual!
I'd say about 1.5X the flat wall price. Remember there's no windows, or doors, or trim, but it's overhead work, and ladder work for cutting the edges. So it's more then walls. That said, if you are doing walls as well then you can cut both ceiling and walls at the same time.
If it's a square room just multiply length x width and that will give you the square footage of the ceiling. Know your overhead and your material numbers and decide on a fair square footage price and handle it that way. That's for commercial only though.
Great!
Thank you!

LOL I’m just seeing this but that is hilarious. I appreciate you watching!
Do you have any tips for how to charge to paint ceilings? Is it by the sqft of the room? It would be like charging to paint the entire room
