What to include on a painting invoice
- Your business name, contact details and license number if your trade requires one
- The client's name, billing address and the job or project address
- Rooms or areas painted, number of coats and finish
- Prep work (patching, sanding, priming)
- Paint brand, color and quantity
- Any warranty or touch-up policy
- Subtotal, tax (if you charge it) and the balance due
- Payment terms, due date and how the client can pay
How painting businesses usually bill
Painters price by the room, by square foot, or by the job, with paint billed separately or included. Prep work is often the part customers underestimate — list it so they see the value.
Take a deposit to cover paint for larger jobs.
