Painting takeoffs, every surface, every coat.
Painting and surface finishes shape how a building looks and how long it lasts. Our takeoffs estimate coverage accurately, reduce site waste and support cost planning across every finish and substrate, internal and external.
Surface, substrate and paint system.
Paint quantities depend on what you’re painting, what it’s made of and how many coats it gets. We measure all three, tailored to your project specification and paint systems.
