Painting

You are up on a ladder. Your paperwork should not be a second job.

Between prepping surfaces, matching colors, taping off trim, and managing multiple rooms across multiple jobs — you have enough going on. Sending estimates and chasing payments should not eat into your evenings or make you look less professional than you are.

Jobkore was built by a licensed contractor who got tired of the same thing. It handles estimates, invoices, and payments — and nothing you do not need. No scheduling module, no CRM bloat. Just the tools that help you price work, win jobs, and get paid.

Estimates organized by room, area, or scope

Painting estimates get long fast. Interior jobs alone can have a dozen rooms, each with walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and closets. Exterior jobs have siding, fascia, soffits, shutters, and detail work. Clients want to see the breakdown — not one lump number with no explanation.

Jobkore lets you organize estimates into sections with line items, quantities, and rates. Break it out by room, by floor, or by scope — prep, prime, finish coats, detail work. Your client sees exactly what they are paying for, and you look like the pro you are.

Change orders when the scope grows

The homeowner sees the kitchen looking fresh and decides they want the hallway done too. Or they want to add cabinet painting halfway through the job. Those add-ons need to be documented before you pick up a brush — not argued about at the end.

Jobkore handles change orders as separate documents tied to the original estimate. The client sees the added scope, approves it, and signs off. When you are ready to bill, the change order already has its own invoice. No confusion about what was in the original price and what was extra.

Hank AI turns your walkthrough notes into an estimate

After a walkthrough you have notes on your phone — "master bedroom, two coats, ceiling too, crown molding is beat up, bathroom needs oil-based primer." Hank AI reads your notes and organizes them into sections and line items. You review, add your rates, and send.

For painters running three or four bids a week, Hank cuts the time between walkthrough and estimate from hours to minutes. The faster a professional estimate hits the client, the less chance they call the next guy.

Invoice the job, get paid without chasing

Most painting jobs are straightforward — send the invoice when the work is done. For bigger jobs, you might bill a deposit upfront and the balance on completion. Either way, Jobkore lets you create invoices tied to your estimate and send your client a link to pay online.

They pay by credit card or bank transfer. No check in the mail, no Venmo requests, no awkward follow-up texts. Stripe handles the processing at their standard rate — Jobkore charges zero additional fees on top.

Know where every job stands

Revenue this month, outstanding balances, overdue invoices, estimates waiting on approval — your dashboard shows all of it in one place. No spreadsheets, no guessing, no logging into three different apps to figure out where your money is.
