Free software for painting contractors. Room-by-room estimates, crew scheduling, paint tracking, photo documentation — $0/month with FieldFuze.
Painting is detail work — and the business side should reflect that. Your customer wants the living room in Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter, the kitchen in White Dove, and the accent wall in Hale Navy. If your crew shows up with the wrong paint because it was written on a sticky note that fell off the dashboard, you're repainting on your dime.
Painting contractors also deal with weather-dependent exterior scheduling, change orders mid-job ('can you also do the hallway?'), and the constant need to document before/during/after for customer satisfaction and dispute prevention.
Dedicated painting software like PaintScout costs $149+/month. FieldFuze gives painting contractors the same capabilities — detailed estimates, crew scheduling, paint tracking, photo documentation — at $0/month.
Built for painters — detailed estimates, paint tracking, weather-aware scheduling.
Build estimates with separate line items per room or area. Wall color, trim color, ceiling, square footage, and prep work — all broken out so the customer sees exactly what's included.
Track paint brand, color, sheen, and quantity per job. Your crew knows exactly which paint goes where — no more sticky notes, no more wrong colors.
Document every stage of the job. Before photos show the existing condition, progress photos track the work, and after photos showcase the finished result. Great for portfolios and dispute prevention.
Schedule crews across multiple painting jobs. Interior projects, exterior projects, commercial repaints — see everyone's schedule and reassign when needed.
Customer wants to add the hallway? Build a change order estimate, get approval with e-sign, and update the job scope — all in FieldFuze. No verbal agreements that turn into disputes.
Add weather notes and exterior scheduling considerations to jobs. Track which exterior jobs need rescheduling due to rain or temperature and move them with a drag-and-drop.
Here's what painting operations look like with FieldFuze:
You walk through the home with the customer. Living room: Revere Pewter on walls, White Dove on trim. Kitchen: same White Dove on cabinets, Hale Navy accent wall. You build the estimate room by room on your phone — each room has its own line item with colors, prep work, and square footage. Total: $4,800. Customer signs on your phone.
Your crew arrives and takes before photos of every room. They open the job on their phones and see exactly which colors go where — no guessing, no calling the office. They prep, tape, and prime.
The homeowner asks "can you also do the hallway and powder room?" You build a change order estimate on your phone — $650 for both rooms. They e-sign the addition right there. The job scope updates automatically.
Your crew takes after photos of every room. You create the invoice from the original estimate plus the change order — $5,450 total. The homeowner pays through the invoice link. Photos, color records, and payment are all in FieldFuze.
Painting-specific software is rare and expensive. General contractor tools don't fit.
