Common Questions
Is labour included in this estimate?▾
Only if you leave the labour toggle on. It's applied as a per-square-foot rate that differs for interior and exterior work. Turn it off if you're buying materials only or already have a contractor quote.
Why is there a cost range rather than one number?▾
The total is shown as a ±10% band because real project costs move with site conditions, surface preparation needs, shade selection and local labour rates. Treat the band as a realistic budgeting window.
When do I need putty?▾
Wall putty is normally used on fresh masonry to create a smooth, even base before primer. On a repaint over a sound existing surface it's often unnecessary, so the option only appears for fresh painting projects.
Are these Colorsome's actual prices?▾
No. The rates used here are generic industry-standard reference figures for planning purposes, and every one of them is labelled 'indicative' in the calculation breakdown. For confirmed pricing, request a quote.
