Website for a painting company
Painting sells itself with images. Before and after photos per project, with the number of days and type of work, do more than a list of services.
In short
- Before and after images per project
- Enquiry with photos and number of rooms
- Interior and exterior split, season included
How it works in this industry
Painting is the trade where the difference is most visible — and that is exactly what most sites throw away by showing only final photos. A before-and-after slider convinces within two seconds, without a word of copy.
Planning is also a selling point. Exterior work happens in spring and summer, interior in winter. A site explaining that and taking enquiries per season fills your quiet months instead of forcing you to say no in May.
What usually goes wrong
- A portfolio without before and after, losing the effect
- Enquiries without dimensions or room counts
- No distinction between interior and exterior work

Maintenance reminder after a set number of years
This is what a painting company usually needs first — not a fixed list. Want something else, Plaincodelab builds that just as well: a webshop, a client portal with logins, a quote calculator, an extra language, a link to the system you already use or an app alongside your site. Describe what you have in mind and PCL will tell you what it costs and what it returns.

What clients search for
These are the questions and searches people in this industry use to find a builder. Every Plaincodelab page is written in that language, not in jargon.
- painter [town] exterior quote
- window frame painting price per metre
- interior painting cost
- painting company with guarantee
- wood rot repair and painting
What to look for when choosing
- Do you show before and after with a slider?
- Does the form ask for rooms, height and condition?
- Do you split enquiries across interior and exterior seasons?
- Do you send an automatic maintenance reminder after some years?
Frequently asked questions
Can I show before and after images?
Yes, with a slider across the photo. That convinces faster than two separate images side by side.
Can I offer maintenance again later?
Yes. After a set period an automatic message goes out offering an inspection.
Do maintenance reminders really work?
Yes. Exterior work needs attention every five to seven years; a message at that moment often produces a job straight away from a client you already know.
Should I quote prices per m2?
A range works better than a fixed price, because surface and condition determine the work.
