How To Bid Paint Jobs - Are you Courteous in People's Homes?

When doing painting estimates, courtesy can help them decide to hire you. Things like good grooming. Don't go do an estimate with a dirty face or being unshaven. If you have been working all day, at least try to clean up a little.

Don't smoke in people's homes is a given. I like to take my shoes off in people's homes out of respect. Once on the job and you have drop cloths set up shoes are O.K. Some painters will wear rubbers during the winter time.

Always being on time for an estimate is good business. I have heard of being 15 minutes early but I'm usually right on the dot.
