Software for painters and decorators

Painting software for accurate quotes and tidy jobs

Quote by room or square metre, manage crews across sites and get paid before the drop sheets are packed.

What should painters and decorators look for in job management software?

Painting businesses need quoting software that prices by room, surface or square metre with paint and labour included, plus scheduling for crews across several sites. Getinto handles both, adds colour and product notes to each job, and turns the finished job into an invoice with card payment in one tap.

Licensing for painting work

In NSW, painting is licensed trade work when residential work is valued at more than $5,000 in labour and materials, including GST. Above that value you also need a written contract. Thresholds and licence classes differ in other states, so check your regulator before you quote. Sources: NSW Government, NSW contracts guide.

Common questions

How should painters quote a job?

Measure each surface, price by area with your rate for prep, number of coats and paint quality, then add access equipment and extras. Saving these rates in Getinto lets you build a room-by-room quote quickly and consistently.

Can I record paint colours against a job?

Getinto can record paint colours against a job. Add colours, product codes, sheen levels and room locations to the job so the crew applies the right finish and you have a record for future touch-ups.
