House (Residential) Painters...

Doing your work on a "handshake" or doing your work using "generic" bid, Invoice or Proposal forms can work as long as there are no problems with the customer. It's a bit like riding on bald tires, as long as there are no problems... you'll be OK... but if something happens, even some small thing while driving, those bald tires can leave you upside down in a ditch somewhere! 

The purpose of a good painting contract is not to "crush" the homeowner in court, but the real purpose should be to prevent disputes in the first place by clearly telling your customer what you are doing for them under the terms of your contract to paint their home and by preventing unrealistic expectations from sabotaging your job.... and residential painting contracts should not scare your customers with obscure "legalize."  The goal should be to stop unnecessary arguments with your customer about the work BEFORE they happen. Customer dissatisfaction impacts your reputation in the area you do business in and also hurts your referral business. Don't run your business with "bald tires" when it is so easy to get a professional and protective Residential, House Painting Contract from ACT Contractors Forms.

Our Contracts will cover and prevent many of the problems painting contractors run into on residential work including these big ones ...

  • If you are doing painting work on a T&M or a cost plus basis, what exactly and specifically are you charging for and what will your customer have to pay?

  • What happens when your customer doesn't like the color? Our contracts spell out the importance of color selection and the difference between "stock" colors and "custom colors" when it comes to returns and exchanges. And our contracts inform the customer about the differences between colors on a paint chip and colors on the house.

  • What is and what is not getting worked on... what is included and charged for and what is an extra charge?

  • What are your warranty responsibilities? Our warranty makes it clear that paint is covered by the paint manufacturer and NOT you. Our warranty makes it clear you are covering the paint you are applying and not the paint applied 50 years ago underneath... What is covered and what is not covered and for how long?

ACT Contractors Forms Software makes it easy to create a commercial painting contract that protects your company, that helps prevents customer conflicts, that saves you time and that just plain looks professional to your customers so they want to do business with you!
