A painting quote your customer can say yes to

A quote is a fixed price for a defined job. That is its whole value: the customer knows the number, and you know what you are being paid for. The trick is making the scope visible, so nothing gets added later without a conversation.

Three lines in, a professional document out.

A quote is a fixed price for a defined job. That is its whole value: the customer knows the number, and you know what you are being paid for. The trick is making the scope visible, so nothing gets added later without a conversation.

Type the work as separate lines — the paint job, any materials, travel, disposal — then set your price. QuoteSnap totals it, formats it with your business name, and opens your phone's share sheet so you can send the PDF while you are still on site.

Put your validity window and your exclusions in the notes: "valid 14 days", "assumes existing fittings are sound". One sentence each, typed once, reused on every quote after that.

QuoteSnap is a document formatter, not accounting software. It does not collect payments, file taxes, or manage a team. The free plan includes five exported documents a month; Solo is $4.99 a month for unlimited documents and your own branding.

Frequently asked

What is the difference between a quote and an estimate?

A quote is a fixed price for a defined scope: it does not change unless the customer changes the work. An estimate is an informed approximation for a job you cannot fully see. If you use an estimate, say on the document what would change the number.

What should a quote include?

Your business details, the customer and site, each line with a quantity and unit price, a subtotal, any discount, tax at the rate you choose, a total, a valid-until date, and a short exclusions note.

Should I quote painting by room or by square foot?

Use whichever you price by. QuoteSnap handles quantities with decimals, so square footage or a room count works the same way.
