Sound familiar?

As a painter, you’re often the last trade on site - the impression you leave is the one the client walks away with. At the same time, you’re juggling 10, 15 jobs in parallel, calculating paint quantities to the square metre and keeping every change order in your head. That’s energy you’d rather put into the work itself.

Material quantities that never quite add up

Too little paint ordered - second delivery, delay, unhappy client. Too much ordered - leftover stock with nowhere to go. Without structured material management, calculating paint quantities per square metre is a guessing game every single time.

Change orders forgotten or invoiced too late

The client wants the bathroom painted too, then the stairwell gets added - and in the end nothing gets invoiced because it was never officially logged. Every unbilled extra is money you’re leaving on the table.

No proof of the perfect finish you delivered

You deliver clean, careful work - but if the client claims three weeks later that there was a scratch, you have nothing to show. Without a digital handover with photos and signature, you’re always the weaker party in a dispute.

How Hit-Online actually helps

Quotes and change orders - calculated fast, billed without gaps

Build your quotes from your own resource library - paints, primers, wallpapers, hourly rates - and calculate quantities directly from the site measurements. A change order comes in? You log it directly in the project. When the invoice goes out, everything is already there - the client sees exactly what they ordered, and you know nothing has been missed.

Material consumption and supplier costs - assigned directly to the job

Paints and materials used are logged directly in the project - by the painter on his smartphone, still on site. Supplier invoices are automatically recognised via PEPPOL and assigned to the right job. You always see whether a project is still within budget - and can act before the margin disappears.

If a complaint comes in, you have the proof - date, photos, signature.
