Still have a question? Talk to LightWork.

How do I account for preparation?

Document visible repairs and surface condition as their own part of the scope. Confirm additional preparation after inspecting the surfaces.

How does LightWork fit into a painting workflow?

LightWork helps collect project details, prepare estimates, and manage follow-up. Use the submitted information to review the scope and decide whether a call, site visit, or written estimate is the right next step.

Who decides the final scope and price?

You do. Customer details and an initial estimate are starting points for your review. Confirm measurements, conditions, materials, and exclusions before sending a final quote.

Can I explore the workflow before creating an account?

Yes. Open the sample project estimator to explore with sample details, or watch the product walkthrough below. Visit pricing for current plans and terms.
