Management software for painting companies

The margin on a decorating job is decided at the quote and lost on site. Management software for decorators ties the estimate, the materials and the days actually worked to the same job.

In brief: software for painting companies

  • Quotes need to be built from measured areas, not from a feeling.
  • Materials are a real cost and are almost never attributed to a job.
  • Weather moves exterior work, and one delay shifts the whole month.
  • Photographs before and after are the record that settles disputes.

Quoting from measurements is what protects the margin. Wall area, number of coats, preparation hours and the materials each imply: estimated by eye, the same job comes out twenty per cent apart from one week to the next.

Materials disappear into the van. Paint bought for one job and finished on another means neither is costed properly, and by the year end nobody can say which kind of work actually pays.

One rained-off exterior job moves everything. Rescheduling a week of outdoor work in a diary that also holds interiors is the difference between a lost week and a rearranged one.

Photographs before and after are the cheapest insurance in the trade. The state of a wall before it was filled is impossible to argue about afterwards, and it also becomes the gallery that wins the next job.

It starts where your customer finds you

A homeowner asking in March about the outside of the house wants to know when it could be done and roughly what it costs. Ask for the property type and the rooms or elevations, and the answer can be a week and a range.

Frequently asked questions about software for painting companies

Why quote from measurements? +

Because eyeballing it is where the margin goes. Area, coats, preparation hours and materials calculated properly produce a consistent price; estimated by feel, the same job varies by a fifth between quotes.

How should materials be tracked? +

Against the job they were bought for. Paint that finishes on a different site leaves both jobs mis-costed, and after a year there is no way to tell which kind of work is actually profitable.

What happens when the weather breaks? +

Everything moves. A week of exterior work pushed back has to fit around interiors already booked, and doing that in a single diary is the difference between rearranging and losing the week.

Are before-and-after photographs worth the trouble? +

They settle arguments and they sell the next job. Nobody can dispute the state of a wall that was photographed before it was filled, and the same images become the portfolio that wins the following enquiry.
