"Your $850 estimate includes wall preparation, two coats of paint on the walls of one 12-by-14-foot bedroom, standard supplies, and cleanup. This estimate assumes the walls are in paint-ready condition and the room is accessible before work begins. Ceiling, trim, and repairs beyond small nail holes are not included. If I find damage that changes the scope, I'll show you what I found and confirm any additional cost before continuing. The work is expected to take one day. Reply to approve the estimate, and I'll confirm the appointment."
