Plan a painting estimate with confidence

A useful estimate begins with the right details. This checklist helps you explain your project and compare what is actually included.

1. List the surfaces, not just the rooms

For each room, note whether you want walls, ceilings, doors, trim and closets painted. Include stairs and high walls. For exterior work, list siding, trim, doors, railings and other surfaces separately.

2. Show the current condition

Take a wide photograph of each space and close-ups of patches, chips or worn areas. Mention previous paint or stain if you know it. Photographs help start the conversation; they do not replace agreement on the final scope.

3. Explain access and timing

Tell us if you are living in the home, if furniture needs to be moved, and which spaces must remain accessible. Include your town and preferred dates. Ceiling height, stairs and exterior access also matter.

4. Compare the written scope

  • Which surfaces and preparation are included?
  • What finish or product approach is proposed?
  • How will furniture, floors and surrounding areas be protected?
  • What cleanup is included?
  • How will any extra work be discussed and approved?
  • Is a workmanship warranty included? If so, what does it cover and for how long?

5. Understand why prices differ

Room size, surface condition, access, preparation, colour changes and the surfaces included can change the work involved. A fixed online price without those details can be misleading. Request a free written estimate for your actual project.

A few practical questions.

How much will my painting project cost?

It depends on the rooms and surfaces, their condition, preparation, ceiling height and finish. Request a free written estimate for your project; photos can help start the conversation.

Will my furniture and floors be protected?

Furniture and floors are protected while we paint, with daily cleanup to keep the working area tidy. Tell us about delicate items or rooms that need to stay accessible when we discuss the work.

How long will it take, and when can you start?

Timing depends on project size, preparation, drying time and current availability. Share your preferred dates when requesting an estimate so we can discuss a suitable schedule.
