Cost of a Good Painter
Prospective customers very often get several painters to
tender estimates. They shop around. A painter
would of course find it useful to
know the competitions bids, but should not
base his price on theirs because their
overheads are bound to be different from his.
Don't be afraid to tender a high price
if the job warrants it. If your
company has a good reputation customers will
take that into account.
Your best paint estimate should be a one
of a kind for that particular job.
It must take into account your companies present
productivity, price of materials, labor, profits and
overheads. There is no book or software
that can take into account all the
wildly different conditions found in paint estimating
work. Use you judgment which will increase
over time.
A simple exercise to find out how much
it will cost to hire a professional
decorator is.. Wait till you see a
painter working on a property down your
street. Ask him if he does private
work!! I know painters and this will
be music to his ears. Tell him what
you want done, and where you live. The
beauty about this way to hire a
great painter is it won't cost a
penny in advertising or phone calls and it cuts
out that expensive middle man.
Cost of a Good Painter
If the paint job is complicated the
painter may ask if he can do it
on a day-work rate. This is not
a good deal for the householder as there
is no telling what the eventual cost
will be. Insist on a price for
the whole job. Get an estimate from
another painter and compare the two.
They may differ greatly.
