Interior Painting Estimator

Price The Cut-In, Not Just The Square Feet.

WHY THIS ONE

• Everything in one file: gallons by room + coats, doors + windows priced as units, ceiling, trim + primer, prep levels + room adders, bucket pricing when cheaper. No add-ons to buy.
• Built for real use: gray cells are the only place you type, and formulas are protected so nothing breaks.
• A Start Here tab walks you through setup in minutes.
• Buy once: no subscription, no app, no monthly fee.

One row per room: size, height, ceiling, coats, door sides, windows, trim feet, primer, prep level.

WHAT IT DOES

• Gallons of wall paint, ceiling paint, primer and trim paint from your coverage and coats, priced by the 5-gallon bucket when cheaper.
• Doors and windows priced as units on top of the wall square feet, where the cut-in time really goes.
• Closet/small-room adder, occupied-room (furniture) adder, high-work adder for tall rooms.
• Prep by level (light, medium, heavy), priming, caulk, and masking.
• Client Proposal page: your logo, scope of work (quantities only, never your costs), total price, deposit, terms, and signatures. Prints on one page.
• A Start Here tab with step-by-step instructions.

WHAT THIS IS NOT (no surprises)

• Not an exterior painting estimator.
• Not a color or product selector.
• Not for cabinet refinishing, murals or specialty finishes.
