Tips for Better Painting Quotes
Always Visit the Site First
Photos lie about wall conditions, ceiling height, and furniture obstacles. A 20-minute walkthrough prevents costly underpricing mistakes.
Specify Paint Quality
List exact paint brand and grade (economy, premium, designer). Clients need to know if their getting Behr or Benjamin Moore.
Break Down Prep vs Paint
Show prep work separately - patching, sanding, priming. Clients often underestimate prep time, so making it visible prevents disputes.
Include Color Consultation
Offer 30-minute color consultation as optional add-on. Small upsells like this differentiate you from competitors quoting just labor.
