FAQs

Here are some of the questions we get asked the most often. Don't see what you're looking for here—reach out to support.

Contact Support

Is PaintScout a painting estimation software?

Yes, and then some. PaintScout is a sales and estimating platform built specifically for painting contractors. You get fast, accurate estimates, professional proposals your customers can sign on the spot, plus CRM and project management built in.

Is PaintScout just for estimating?

No. PaintScout covers your whole workflow. With the Sales account you get Estimates, proposals, payments, and follow-ups and more. With Operations, you can track leads, schedule jobs, manage your pipeline, and run production, all in one place.

Does PaintScout work on mobile?

Yes. PaintScout works on any device, phone, tablet, or desktop, so you can build and send estimates right from the job site, no laptop required.

How is PaintScout different from other contractor software?

Most contractor tools are built for general trades and treat estimating like an afterthought. PaintScout was built specifically for painting contractors — the workflows actually match how painting businesses sell and operate.

Can you import my data from another program?

Yes. Your production rates, line items, and job history can come with you — no re-entering data from scratch. Getting it out of your old platform can be the tricky part, and we've got you covered there too.
