About COMET Estimating

Accurate Painting Estimates That Protect Your Budget

Price, systems, prep, and work site access are some factors in painting cost. Underestimating can lead to cost blowouts. Scarcity of materials, increased labour costs and last-minute changes can cause delays and cost overruns. Good estimating can help you avoid these issues up front.

At COMET Estimating, we carefully measure all aspects of your painting job. We measure wall and ceiling area, preparation work, coatings, paint volume and labour separately. You get more accurate pricing and improved scope visibility. You know exactly what you need in terms of materials, labour and time.

Experience Everything We Offer

Types of Painting Projects We Estimate

Painting projects involve planning for surfaces, finishes, preparation and manpower. Variations in project types require different material systems and techniques. Our painting estimates give reliable quantities and cost estimates to ensure projects are executed efficiently.

Residential Interior Painting

Our estimates cover interior painting for residential buildings, apartments, condominiums and residential projects throughout Canada. We provide takeoffs for walls, ceilings, trim, doors and preparation.

Exterior Building Painting

Outdoor painting projects have issues with access, weather, and preparation. We determine coating systems and areas to assist with safe and efficient execution.

Commercial Painting Projects

Scheduling and scope of work is important for commercial projects. We calculate costs for commercial bids on offices, retail, mixed-use and tenant improvement projects.

Industrial Coating Systems

Industrial painting can use particular coating systems and protection. We consider not only the condition of the surface, coating demands and industry standards.

Renovation and Repainting Projects

Renovation projects require an estimation of the existing surface condition. Our estimates for repainting ensure on time completion and savings.

Protective and Specialty Coatings

We estimate protective and special coatings for durability, waterproofing and other factors. We specify materials and instructions for application.

Who We work with

Our painting estimating services are tailor-made for those who require precise quantities and reliable cost estimating. We assist contractors, builders and developers to estimate accurately and manage painting projects better.

Low quantities may result in painting shortages during construction, resulting in delays and emergency orders.

02

Increased Material Waste

Excess paint leads to waste and increased costs for the project.

03

Labour Scheduling Problems

Estimated quantities impact labour scheduling, productivity and on-site conflicts.

04

Extended Project Timelines

Construction delays due to rework or stock-outs can affect project schedules and commitments to customers.

05

Inconsistent Finish Quality

Hurried procurement to meet budget constraints can impact finish quality and project quality.

06

Client Complaints and Revisions

Budget and schedule variance may cause a lack of confidence and extra revisions or claims.
