Prepare a quote request
Ask providers to quote for the same painting job
The same property brief makes quotes easier to compare. These are planning prompts; each provider’s exact scope is agreed in the quote.
- State the municipality, property type and whether work is indoors or outdoors. Include photos and an approximate area.
- Describe the existing surface, coating and visible damage. Say whether the space will be empty or in use during the work.
- Ask for preparation, protection, paint, number of coats and final cleaning to be itemised.
- Agree the schedule, access, any scaffolding, and approval and pricing of extra work in writing.
