Estimate Paint Cost

How much will a paint job cost? To
answer that question you need to know how to
estimate work. Before we can come up with a
good estimate, how long will it take
your men to paint individual items, such
as ceilings, walls, windows, door frames and
doors, skirting. Add all the times it
takes to paint these items together.
multiply by 2, whatever you day work rate is.
To this you must add preparation and
clean-up time.

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.

When a painter has been in the decorating
trade for a while, he soon realizes that
writing a perfect estimate no way guarantee's
winning the contract. I have noticed this
when I have been awarded jobs even
though I submitted the highest tender. You
should always submit a thorough estimate, It's
part of the total impression the prospective
customer uses to choose one contractor from the others.

Paint prices always go up, have you noticed
how dear top brands of paint are nowadays.
If you can get quality paint at a
discount, good for you, but do not
pass on this good fortune to your customers.
I always make money when I supply
the materials! I know painters who ignore
price increases then complain of the cost.

Door handles, window catches finger plates,light
switches, wall furniture such as pictures must
be reinstated. When first taking off make
certain you keep everything together and don't
lose any screws, keep them altogether in
a box.

It makes no difference if you are tons of
money cheaper than the other guys, if the
client gets a whiff of alcohol on
your breath, they will take this as a
warning sign you could be sloppy,unreliable
or dishonest. Would you allow a person
into your home to work amongst your family
and valuables with this persona, NO. It's a
fact there are of plenty of painters

the painting and decorating business is knowing
how to paint! The savvy contractor knows

Decorating clients have of course very different
priorities. A percentage of them will view the
cost as their deciding factor. Some decorators
don't give them a estimate because they
see them as a headache and more
trouble than they are worth. On the
other hand there is the clients who
associate a low estimate with unqualified decorators
or poor quality of workmanship.
