Painting & Decorating Invoicing Tips
- 1Itemise preparation work separately — it's often half the job and clients should see that value.
- 2List paint brands, colours, and quantities so customers know exactly what was used.
- 3Charge day rates rather than hourly for painting — it's the industry norm and easier to estimate.
- 4Include the property address and which rooms were done for warranty and reference purposes.
- 5Keep receipts for all materials — you can offset them against tax as a business expense.
