Our Painting estimate process
Our painting estimating process starts with a detailed review of plans and specifications to identify all paintable surfaces, coating systems, and preparation requirements. We then perform precise takeoffs, apply execution-based labor and material pricing, and account for access and protection needs. Each estimate is delivered with bid proposal including material order lists.
