Questions, answered.

Is painting one wall for a principal contractor RCT work?
No. Revenue says painting one wall is not a material alteration. Painting that completes a new build or a refurbishment, or materially alters a building, is a construction operation.
Can I keep photos of the prep before the paint goes on?
Yes. On a job’s Photographs tab, each photo is filed against one of the job’s visits, chosen under Where it goes. Under When they were taken, prep photos can be marked Before the work, and the tab groups photos under those marks. A Caption can name the room or the wall.
Does it hold a paint maker’s colour chart?
No. It holds no colour charts. A paint you use can be a part in your price book, with its Code, the supplier it is Bought from and its Cost, ex VAT.
