Your brush work is perfect. Your process is not.
Most painters lose money not because they price too low, but because they waste too much time on admin and do not track their true costs.
Quoting takes longer than painting
Walk the house, measure every room by hand, drive home, open the laptop, try to remember what colour the client wanted, then finally type up a quote. By then, the client already hired someone faster.
Paint costs add up invisibly
Between primer, topcoat, brushes, rollers, and filler, you are spending hundreds per job on materials. But without tracking each cost against the quote, your margins are a mystery.
You look less professional than you are
Your work is excellent, but your quotes come as text messages or basic emails. The builder down the road sends branded PDFs with line items and payment links. Guess who the client picks.
Look like a company. Work like a one-man band.
BuiltUp gives painters the tools to send professional quotes, track every cost, and get paid on time.
AI Room Estimation
Tell the app what you see: room size, ceiling height, surface condition. It calculates coverage, recommends coats, and prices materials plus labour in seconds.
Material Tracking
Log every tin of paint, every roll of tape, every tube of filler against the job. Know your true material cost per room, not just a rough guess.
Professional Invoicing
Convert your quote into a deposit, stage, or final invoice with one tap. Clients pay online through a secure branded portal. No more chasing bank transfers.
Branded Quote Templates
Create reusable templates for common jobs: one room repaint, full house exterior, wallpaper strip and repaint. Customize and send in under two minutes.
Quote from Your Phone
Build, preview, and send professional quotes from your iPhone or Android. No laptop needed. Your client sees a branded PDF with line items and a payment link.
Client Portal
Clients get a professional online portal to view quotes, approve work, and pay invoices. It turns a sole trader into a brand.
I went from quoting three jobs a week to quoting three a day. The AI estimation handles all the maths for coverage and coats. I just walk the rooms and talk. My close rate went up because I get quotes back same day instead of next week.
