From Estimates to Instant Pricing: Andrew McGilly on Building the Uber of Home Painting with Prime Logic
Manage episode 524609016 series 3667281
What if getting your house painted—or any home service—was as easy and transparent as booking an Uber?
In this episode of Builder Buzz by Home Nation, host Quinton Comino sits down with Andrew McGilly, Founder of Prime Logic, to explore how AI is reshaping contractor pricing and eliminating the need for salespeople. Prime Logic delivers instant, upfront quotes for home painting before a contractor ever steps on-site—changing how homeowners and tradespeople interact.
Andrew breaks down how Prime Logic works end-to-end: homeowners enter their details through an AI-powered chatbot, receive immediate “good, better, best” pricing, select colors and dates, and get matched with vetted, licensed, and insured professionals. Paint is delivered directly to the home, the job is completed, and payment happens digitally. No estimates, no sales calls, no hidden markups.
The conversation dives deep into why Prime Logic is not a marketplace, but an entirely new category inspired by Uber. Andrew explains how removing sales overhead lowers prices for homeowners while allowing contractors to earn more by saving time on marketing and lead chasing. He also shares his long-term vision for expanding beyond painting into plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and other trades.
