Painting Estimate Template and Calculator, Painting Quote & Bid Spreadsheet for Painters, Interior Exterior, Excel Google Sheets

Seller's description

Painting estimate template and calculator for painters: interior and exterior bids, paint gallons, labor hours and a price that hits your margin.

Stop guessing. Price every painting job to hit your profit margin, in 5 minutes.

Most painters price by "cost plus 30%." That doesn't give you a 30% margin. It gives you 23%, and after overhead you're working for less than your crew. This system works backwards from the margin YOU choose, so overhead and profit are built into every price.

★ WHAT IT DOES
• Type in room sizes → get gallons of paint, labor hours, crew days and your price, automatically
• Interior AND exterior: walls, ceilings, trim, doors, windows, siding, gables, fascia
• Prep levels (Light / Standard / Heavy) adjust labor automatically
• Extras section for drywall repair, lift rental and add-ons, priced separately
• Profit check: instantly shows your net profit and warns you if a price is below your target
• "The Markup Trap": shows exactly how much money a plain markup would have left on the table
• Client-ready quote: your business name and contact info, scope of work, deposit, balance, terms and signature line. Print or save as PDF.
• Job Tracker: log every estimate, then enter actual hours and materials to see your REAL profit
• Dashboard: close rate, booked revenue, average job size, real margin, hours over/under estimate

★ WHO IT'S FOR
Solo painters, small crews and handymen who want to price with confidence and stop underbidding.

★ WHAT YOU GET
• 1 spreadsheet file (7 tabs) that works in Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets (free)
• A filled-in example job so you can see it working before you start
• Step-by-step "Start Here" guide inside the file
