Service guides / Painting
Use this painting brief to define the job before contacting providers. A clear scope helps you explain the result you want and compare proposals for the same work.
Record the starting point
- Interior or exterior areas
- Existing peeling or damp patches
- Colours and finish preferences
Separate the main options
A repaint over sound coating differs from stripping failed paint or repairing a damaged surface. Record what must be included, what can be optional and which decisions still need a site assessment.
Build your project brief
Gather photographs, measurements and any previous job records. Explain the problem or intended outcome in your own words. State your preferred timing, access restrictions and whether the property or business must remain in use.
Turn the brief into a request
Send the same information to each provider. Ask them to identify assumptions, missing information and work that needs inspection before a firm price. Keep the replies together so changes to the scope are visible.
Before committing, decide who will approve the work, who supplies materials and what evidence of completion you expect. These choices belong in the written scope rather than being left until the job starts.
