Frequently asked questions
When will I be eligible to get a job request?
-
You can start cooperating with us about one week after registering.
-
We will send you a short test to complete.
-
After that, we will contact you within a few days to schedule a trial day, explain the process, and answer any questions.
-
We can’t always schedule a trial day due to our painters’ availability, but if we do, it’s an excellent opportunity for you to get a kick start and begin receiving orders much faster.
-
Once the test and trial day are completed, you will start receiving job requests from us!
How does the system work?
-
After a client submits a job request, we call them to discuss details and provide a price estimate.
-
We then match the job with the most suitable painter in the area—if we call you, it means you’re the best fit for the job!
-
We’ll share the job details, including the price and start date with you.
-
Once you accept the job, you get in touch with the client and travel to the location on the scheduled day with our one-page order form (which we provide before your first job).
-
You and the client will confirm the price and sign the form. The form also includes a section for signing off after the job is completed to ensure the client is satisfied.
-
Send us a photo of the signed form, and we’ll handle the payment request and communicate with the client.
-
The client pays us directly online, so you don’t have to handle payments.
How do I get paid?
-
You will be paid every second Wednesday.
-
Payments are made to the bank account you provided.
-
Payments cover all jobs completed in the past two weeks but exclude paint costs (which you will arrange directly with the client).
Do I pay anything to Adam?
-
No fixed or monthly fees — this is a key advantage compared to competitors.
-
Service fees (22% + VAT) are only deducted from finished jobs, and they’re based on your work (not materials), so you don’t need to send us any money.
Do I set my own prices for jobs with Adam?
-
Jobs come with a price estimate, calculated using the client’s provided info.
-
If the job doesn’t match the description when you arrive, you can adjust the price, but it must be done before starting, and the client must sign to approve the new price.
Who provides the paint/wallpaper?
-
This varies by job and is based on the agreement between Adam and the client (if not specified differently).
-
Paint/wallpaper is not included in the price estimate, so we’ll ask the client what they prefer.
-
If the painter provides the paint, make sure to bring the official receipt form the paint shop to the customer as this will be paid on the spot by the customer to painter, before the job starts.
Do I have to accept every job I get through Adam?
-
No, you are not required to accept every job.
-
There is no penalty for declining a job.
-
You can provide your availability schedule, and we will adjust job offers accordingly.
