Affordable Doesn’t Mean Basic.
This Is Software Set Up for Painters.

Every job carries what a painter needs to know before the first can opens, and every step after the estimate is tracked in one place.

The Rooms, the Coats and the Colors Before Anyone Opens a Can

Whoever walked the house already wrote down the rooms, measured the walls, picked the sheen and noted the color codes. PaintingBossPro carries all of it from the estimate to the job and onto the painter’s phone.

  • Areas: living room, bedrooms, kitchen, ceilings, trim, doors, cabinets, siding
  • Square feet, interior or exterior, and the number of coats
  • Sheen from flat to gloss, and the surface: drywall, wood, brick, stucco, fiber cement
  • Brand and color codes for walls and trim

Generic Field Software Doesn’t Think Like a Painter

Most job software gives you an address and a notes box. A painting job is a list of rooms, a square footage, a coat count, a sheen, a set of color codes and a prep plan, and it usually starts as an estimate that sat for two weeks before the customer said yes.

Notes boxes lose details

Color codes typed into a note get missed. PaintingBossPro gives colors, sheen and coats their own fields that show on every list and the crew app.

Estimates go cold

An estimate nobody follows up on is a job you never paint. Three follow-up texts go out on their own until the customer answers.

The schedule lives on a wall calendar

Approved jobs sit on a Waiting List and a live map, so you can see what is sold, where it is and which crew should take it.

Billing happens days later

Complete builds the invoice from the job and can charge the card on file the same day.

The Office Sells and Schedules. The Crew Paints and Checks It Off.

The office builds the estimate, books the job and sends the reminders. The crew opens the job on their phone, runs the checklist, takes the photos and taps Complete, and the invoice is already built when they load the van.

  • Estimate details carry onto the job when it is approved
  • A new job at a past customer fills in from their last job
  • The finished checklist and photos show on the job for the office
  • Card on file charged at completion, or rolled onto a monthly statement

Painting Contractor Software — Common Questions

What kinds of painting work does it handle?

Interior rooms, whole-house repaints, exteriors, cabinets, trim and doors, ceilings, accent walls, drywall repair, deck and fence staining, unit turnovers and commercial repaints. Each is a service on your list with its own price, and each job carries the areas, square feet, coats, sheen, surface, colors and prep.

Can I price by the room and by the square foot?

Yes. Set services up with a flat price per room or price them from the square feet on the property, and add the extras like ceilings, trim and doors as their own lines.

Do my painters need to download an app?

No app store download. The crew app runs in the phone’s browser on iPhone and Android and can be added to the home screen. Painters log in with your company login and their own PIN.

Can I bill a property manager once a month?

Yes. Set the property manager up as a Monthly account and every unit turnover goes on one statement at month end, each line labeled with the unit address.

How much does it cost?

Start is $59 a month, Pro is $89 and Crew is $199. You are never billed per user, and every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with no credit card.

Each part of the platform has its own page: estimates, scheduling, the crew app, invoicing, commercial work, house painting and running the business. See the full PaintingBossPro platform overview.
