Commercial Painting Item Template

The commercial painting item template has roughly 30 items and can be used for either interior or exterior jobs. The expectation if this was going to be used is that you would copy the item template and have a single interior commercial and exterior commercial template. There is a much stronger focus in this template on  inclusions, exclusions and scope of work. 

This template is based on entry of the surface dimensions / item count which will then calculate the needed time and materials to complete the project. 

The final project price will be based on the calculation of hours and materials and the price of the labor and price of the specific materials. More on the specific pricing and understanding item assembly setup.
