07/09/08 – Paint Enigma

 

Paint seems to mystify many people in the construction industry.   Some architects tend to overlook paint when drawing the plans for a building; however, once the painting contractor is on the job, many presume the painters should also be mind-readers.

 

Many painting contractors find themselves playing a shell game with their customers. They don't just mix paint; they also throw in extra profit, and then spin the scope of work into the mix.  Sometimes the ensuing chaos creates extra profit; however, too often, the chaos just leads to extra cost instead.

 

Eventually, almost every painting contractor realizes that accurate takeoffs and estimates lead directly to profitable jobs and satisfied customers.  Since 1985, my professional services for painting contractors have been increasing profitability while reducing chaos.  

 

Today, you can start using your takeoff & estimating resources more effectively.

I can show you how… just show me that you are interested NOW.
