Thanks so much this is just what i needed. Starting my business soon have almost all the tools to the jobs but the one thing that has been on my mind the most is bidding right. Man thanks so much for this!!
great spreadsheet, small issue. Your spreadsheet dopant calculate gallons needed for 1 coat. It only starts working with 2 coats or more. Also the gross profit is always red, no matter what percentage its showing.
What ever hourly rate come out to be for you so the hourly rate per painter per hour. So if your hourly rate is $80 per hour and you measure a job for 100 hours then 100hrs X $80/h = $8,000 for labor. Then add you material on top of that. 100 can be one man for 100 hours or 2 men for 50 hours.
Hi Steve, these programs look fantastic, my son is a qualified painter & decorator working for himself as a sub-contractor as we live in Australia can you change the gallons to liters and measurements to mm (meters) in the software this benefit my son's business Regards Jason
checked out your videos. started my paint business and studying 1 spreadsheet but came across yours and find it easier for me to start my revenue. Could I download?
I have a job, 1 story house, 1100 sq feet, about 7 windows and 2 doors.. I'm in Burford Georgia... I'm a one person show, how much would you think I can charge for the job?

Thanks so much for this spreadsheet. It is amazing. What does factor mean?
My pleasure 😊
The % Factor is a was to simply change the production rates by 25% or whatever % you plug in.

I think the templates are great! Definitely takes the guessing out. Can I use this template for new construction though?
Awesome video, would be great to see this for car or heavy haulage
Vehicle

Great video! Thanks for the information 👍
You’re most welcome! 👍
now is this hourly rate per painter? for example would it be 110 sell rate with two and if you adjust the sell rate do you need to up the labor rate?

We’ll, you could but it would take some work reworking all of the formulas.

Absolutely
How would you do cabinets? Or what if some rooms require more coats and others less? :)
You can count the cabinets as doors.
Just enter the number for the amount of coats you need. 😃👍
Thank you.
My pleasure 😊
Can you change the imperial measurements to metric as Im in New Zealand? Cheers
In the software..
Hi Ale, I’m sorry. If I was charging a fee to cover my time I could.
Do you use estimator rocket in conjunction with this template?
No. If you'd like to use an estimating app, current we recommend PaintScout.com
What if you're not using primer? How do i change it
You just count the first coat at paint. if prime and paint it's 2 coats. If no primer and 1 coat of paint, 1 coat. If 2 coats of paint, 2 coats.
Where can I get this software from
I have a job, 1 story house, 1100 sq feet, about 7 windows and 2 doors.. I'm in Burford Georgia... I'm a one person show, how much would you think I can charge for the job?
