Starting A Painting Company Melbourne Aust.


hi, my name is dave and iam starting a company in melbourne,i formally am a auto spray painter who switched to painting and decorating over the last year, now i have started quoting on new houses and units , and iam going to applie my 20 years spraying experiance in this field and believe my skills in handling airless spraying equip. will give me an edge over normal brush and roller guys. iam aware that is is very competive and am looking for any advice i can get. i qoute at around $700 per square 9.2 meters, including all costs and gst. which most developers seem to think is good. i calculate that a 12 sq unit with to people on it would take arond a week to complete. using around a $1000 in matieral, my equip is graco airless. have the finance and trade cards etc. looking for sound advice . any takers
