Create a painter and decorator website that shows your prices per m²

People looking for a painter and decorator usually have a date in mind: getting the keys, a new tenant moving in, a summer free to deal with the façade. They type painter + Nantes, or their own town, open three sites and keep the ones that answer their questions without a phone call.

What does it cost to repaint a room? Say so before they ring

That question is why they opened your site. Each service shows a starting price per m² or per item: walls and ceilings, woodwork and doors, wallpaper, façades, shutters. Add the usual time it takes, two days for a bedroom, a week for a stairwell, and visitors can tell straight away whether you fit their budget. "From" is enough when the state of the walls changes everything: it reassures without tying you to a wall you have not seen.

Filling, sanding, priming: the part of the quote nobody sees

Two quotes for the same living room can be miles apart, and the client cannot see why. Your site tells them. Spell out what preparation includes: floors and furniture covered, walls washed, cracks filled, surfaces sanded and primed before two finishing coats. Someone who has read that page compares your price with equivalent work, not with one quick coat over a badly prepared wall. On each service page, a short list states what is included and what is not, so the final bill holds no surprise.

Finished rooms and façades, photographed in daylight

A painter is chosen on what people can see. Each job shows its photo, the paint and finish used (matt, eggshell, satin), the town, the year and the time it took. A two-tone dining room, a wallpapered hallway, a yellow house front brought back to life: three captioned photos do more than a gallery of twenty silent ones. If you use paints rated A+ for indoor air, say so next to the picture.

10% VAT, façade colours, old lead paint: three questions you will be asked

• VAT: 10% in a home finished more than two years ago, 20% in a new build or business premises.
• The town hall: a new façade colour needs a prior declaration, and many French towns impose their own colour chart.
• Lead: layers applied before 1949 may contain it, so you ask for the lead report if there is one and never sand dry.

Stay precise about guarantees: the one-year completion guarantee covers all your work, the ten-year guarantee only paint that waterproofs a façade.

A painter website that landlords come back to

Landlords, letting agents and building managers return every year if you make life easy for them. One of the five designs is built for quick refreshes between tenants or before a sale, another for crews who put scaffolding up on apartment blocks. The quote form wants the address of the work and the rooms or surfaces to paint, so you can plan the visit and price the floor, the access and the equipment. Three short reviews on the home page, from a landlord, a family and a building manager, show the kind of clients who already trust you.

Open the preview, add your prices per m² and your best façade, and watch your painting site take shape before you even create an account.
