Construction software for painting contractors — estimate prep, primer, paint, and labor by the square foot with waste and finish level baked in. Built for painting crews running residential and commercial work.
Surface prep is often the largest single labor line in a paint job. A new-construction wall isn't the same job as a 40-year-old wall with cracks, holes, and three coats of failing latex.
Trim and cabinets are linear or per-unit work. Walls and ceilings are square footage. One blended rate per job means you're under-bidding the detail work.
Same square foot, very different production rate. Without separate assemblies you're guessing — and the spray jobs cover for the brush jobs that lose money.
Measure every paintable surface on the plan — walls, ceilings, soffits, fascia, doors, trim. Square footage and linear footage flow into the estimate with prep + primer + finish coats already mapped.
Reusable assemblies for interior, exterior, cabinet refinish, and high-end work. Each one bundles surface prep, primer choice, number of coats, labor rate — drop in once, reuse on every bid.
Generate proposals that clearly call out which surfaces get which prep level, which primer, which finish, and which color family. No ambiguity on the punch list, no scope creep.
