Overview
A clearer way to manage your painter decorator paperwork
Painting and decorating is finish-quality trade work — prep matters more than topcoat, customers see every line and every drip, and the work is judged at handover by people who've been living next to it for the duration. The brushwork is your craft; the paperwork around it (room-by-room scope, materials specification, preparation included, completion sign-off, GDPR for owner data) is what protects margin when a customer queries a wall colour or a finish. LaunchKit gives UK painter-decorators ready-made templates for much of that admin layer: business documents (room-by-room scope, materials specification, supply-and-paint quote, completion sign-off, photo consent, GDPR notice, complaint procedure), financial trackers and invoicing, a pricing calculator that works out each price from your hours, hourly rate and materials, an AI copy kit for customer comms, and a startup guide. Every template is UK-specific, A4 print-ready and built around how UK painter-decorators actually quote prep-and-finish work, manage snag lists and reconcile margin per project. Keep one short weekly filing slot so this week's receipts sit with the matching job notes.
What we solve
Common UK admin problems we solve
- Room-by-room scope agreed verbally, with no written record when a customer adds rooms on the day or queries which surfaces were primed
- Prep work (sanding, filling, lining) folded into the total, with no written list of the preparation included when a customer queries why prep took longer than topcoat
- Rooms and whole-house jobs priced differently each time, with hours, your hourly rate and materials written up differently on every quote
- Self-assessment compiled each January from card statements, paint-merchant accounts and prep-day notes
- The same enquiry replies, paint-day schedule confirmations and snag-handover follow-ups rewritten from blank every job
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Are these painter-decorator templates UK-specific?
- Yes. A4 print-ready, GBP, UK conventions for room scope, materials specification, prep-and-finish quoting and customer paperwork. The quote form and completion sign-off reflect how UK painter-decorators typically document surface preparation, finish specification and room-by-room work.
- Do the templates cover the line between prep, paint and snag?
- There isn't a separate scope template. The quote and estimate form lists the preparation works included (such as sanding, filling and priming) separately from the materials specification, and the completion sign-off includes a snagging section so the customer's pre-handover comments are recorded against the sheet rather than emerging weeks later.
- What file formats do I get?
- Essential Business Documents are starter PDFs with a fillable business-name header. Customisable Financial Forms are browser-personalisable HTML. Premium arrives in two downloads: interactive fillable PDFs plus editable DOCX files, and a separate fill-online HTML bundle. The pricing calculator is an Excel workbook. The AI Copy Kit contains 4 editable DOCX files and 4 read-only reference PDFs; it does not generate content automatically.
- Where should the week's receipts sit?
- Keep them with the job notes from the same week. A short filing slot is enough to put the receipt, the customer and the amount in one place, so the folder is ready when you review it.
