The painting scope check.
A useful painting estimate specifies preparation, surfaces, coating system and access—not just room count.
Open the five questions to check before quoting
- Which surfaces and measured areas will be painted?
- What patching, sanding, priming and protection are included?
- Which paint product, finish, colors and number of coats are specified?
- What height, ladder access and furniture moving are required?
- Are trim, doors, ceilings, exterior surfaces and repairs included or excluded?
Keep confirmed measurements, photos and exclusions with the project. Resolve unknowns before committing to a fixed price.
