The ache

The prep is the job — and the first thing that gets underquoted

Filling, sanding, priming, protecting — the prep is where the hours go and where the finish is won. But it's invisible in a quote, so it's the first thing shaved to look competitive, and you end up donating a day's graft to every job.

What it handles

Interiors, exteriors and the prep between

  • Interior repaintsprep, coats and coverage costed room by room

  • Surface preparationfilling, sanding and making good, priced in

  • Exterior paintingmasonry and woodwork, weather-dependent work costed

  • Wallpaper hangingincluding specialist and feature papers

  • Woodwork & specialist finishes

  • Spray & commercial work

An app will just price the paint and ignore the real work.

The opposite — it's built to put the prep on the page, because that's where your hours and your finish live. You set what prep the job needs; it costs it into a draft you adjust before it goes out.
