Painting websites for FieldPulse that stop handoff leaks
We are frustrated that painting requests leak when the website can’t capture project scope upfront: the request lands without surfaces, room counts, or timing, so the first response window becomes clarifying calls before FieldPulse can move it into a quote workflow. This setup qualifies the request before it reaches FieldPulse so follow-up starts with usable context.

What's broken on most painting websites
We are frustrated that most painting sites capture a message but miss the details that determine estimating and scheduling. Without surface and scope context, the first call is spent reconstructing the job before a quote path can start.
A weak painting handoff can cost the estimate slot and the follow-up sequence that should have started immediately.
What a FieldPulse-connected website does instead
The site captures scope and timing before the handoff. On the native path, the website routes visitors into FieldPulse’s Booking Portal for request/estimate intake. On the custom path, a backend integration uses FieldPulse’s documented API model (API key via support) to write structured intake into FieldPulse records once qualified.
Native option
Use FieldPulse’s Booking Portal for straightforward estimate requests when the portal flow fits.
API option
Use a server-side FieldPulse API handoff when intake needs deeper qualification before creating jobs or estimates.
How the connection works
Simplest path
Native FieldPulse handoff (Booking Portal)
Route visitors into FieldPulse’s Booking Portal so estimate requests start inside FieldPulse rather than inbox threads.
When to use: When the portal flow is sufficient and you want the simplest documented intake path.
More control
Custom Painting intake + FieldPulse API
Collect scope and surface details first, then write structured intake into FieldPulse via a backend integration. FieldPulse’s public API article says API keys are obtained via support/chat and webhooks are limited to job status changes at this time.
When to use: When the website must qualify scope before creating records in FieldPulse.
What the website captures for painting
Generic Painting forms lose the detail the team needs in the first response window.
Project address
Routing and site visit planning depend on address.
Project type (interior, exterior, both)
Project type drives estimating and scheduling paths.
Scope signals (rooms, square footage, or surfaces) (optional)
Scope signals reduce estimate back-and-forth.
Prep needs / condition notes (optional)
Condition changes labor and expectations.
Timeline / readiness
Separates urgent turnarounds from planned projects.
Contact details
Gives the team a clean way to respond without rebuilding the same basics.

Frequently asked questions
Does this replace FieldPulse?
No. The website feeds FieldPulse; it does not replace FieldPulse after the request lands.
Can we start with the Booking Portal?
Yes. FieldPulse publicly markets the Booking Portal as the native customer-facing intake surface.
Can the site capture better painting scope before the handoff?
Yes — project type, surfaces/rooms, and timeline can be captured before FieldPulse receives the request.
What webhook events are available?
FieldPulse’s public API article says it only offers webhooks for job status changes at this time.

We will show how painting intake can move through one site without the usual handoff drag. If the preview shows the fit is real, the build scope gets clarified before you commit and the next bottleneck stays visible instead of getting buried in a proposal maze.
