A paint takeoff in the quote builder
Square feet in, coats picked, gallons and painter hours out. Interior walls and ceilings, exterior siding and trim, cabinet doors, decks and fences — each with its own scope chips.
Painting & decorating
Walls and ceilings by the square foot, coats and sheens on the quote, colour libraries to browse with the client — Daybook speaks painter.
Painting is the second trade Daybook was finished for, after the masonry company it was built inside. Not a template with a different noun in the headline: painting has its own job types, its own checklists, its own quoting words, its own colour libraries and its own website — and every screen that used to say brick or stone says paint or colour to a painter.
The paint takeoff is the part that earns its keep. Measure the walls, pick the coats, and the quote works out the gallons and the painter hours itself — no per-room spreadsheet, no guessing at coverage.
On top of everything Daybook does for every trade — the full list is here — painting gets its own tools.
Square feet in, coats picked, gallons and painter hours out. Interior walls and ceilings, exterior siding and trim, cabinet doors, decks and fences — each with its own scope chips.
Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, Behr, Dulux, Cloverdale and Beauti-Tone — browse by colour family, add your own lines alongside, and share colours with the client.
Pre-job site assessment, colour & sheen confirmation before you buy paint, and a final walkthrough with touch-ups and photos — attached to the right jobs automatically.
Interior repaint, exterior repaint, cabinet refinishing, new construction, commercial, deck and fence stain — the job types, the examples and the document preview all speak painting.
Try colours on the customer’s own photo of their own house, and let them pick from the swatch rail in their portal.
Cut in, coats, sheen, spray and back-roll — drafts and job summaries use a painter’s vocabulary, and the auto-classifier files a job as interior, exterior, cabinets or commercial.
Your account starts with a real painting site template — a colour-consultation page included — edit it in the app, and the quote-request form drops leads straight into Daybook with the job address already on them.
Your own numbers beat any feature list — measure a room and let the takeoff price it.
