Use-case checklist

What to include in a painting quote

Paint quotes become disputes when wall preparation, number of coats, ceilings, doors, and paint grade are unspecified. A surface-by-surface scope lets clients compare equal work instead of only totals.

  • rooms, surfaces, or measured area
  • prep and repair allowance
  • primer and coat count
  • paint grade and material responsibility
  • furniture, cleanup, schedule, and exclusions

Complete it cleanly

Identify rooms or square footage, surface condition, prep standard, primer, coat count, paint brand or allowance, and protected areas. Keep drywall repair, color changes, and moving furniture explicit.

When this document is the right choice

Use this quote to present a fixed proposed price before work begins. A quote is best when scope and price are defined. Use an estimate instead when hidden conditions or an unfinished scope can materially change the final cost.
