Professional Interior & Exterior Painting in Chennai

Interior and Exterior Painting: What Is Different

Interior painting focuses on a smooth, washable finish: low-odour emulsions for living areas, anti-fungal coatings for humid rooms such as bathrooms and kitchens, enamel on doors and trims, and texture finishes where you want a feature wall.

Exterior painting has to cope with Chennai's humidity, strong sun, dust and monsoon rain, so we use weather-resistant systems, and salt-resistant paints for homes near the coast.

Painting Cost in Chennai

Professional painting typically costs Rs. 12 to Rs. 28 per sq.ft depending on paint quality. The final price depends on:

• The condition of the walls and how much crack filling or putty they need
• The paint brand and grade, for example Asian Paints or Nippon
• The number of coats and whether the scope is interior, exterior or both
• Special finishes such as texture, stencil work or enamel trims

A standard 2BHK repaint can usually be completed in 3 to 5 days. We give a free quote after a site inspection.

Why Surface Preparation Decides How Long Paint Lasts

Most paint failures, such as peeling, bubbling and uneven patches, start under the paint rather than in it. Before any colour goes on we:

• Scrape off loose and flaking paint
• Fill cracks and apply putty where the wall needs levelling
• Prime the surface so the finish coats bond evenly
• Check for dampness, because paint over a damp wall will peel again

If a wall is damp because of seepage from the terrace or a bathroom, the leak needs to be fixed first. Our waterproofing service deals with the cause, and we can repaint once the wall has dried.

Choosing Colours

We provide digital shade cards and advice on colour combinations, so you can see how a shade will look with your flooring and furniture before the work begins.

Painting FAQs

Why is the paint peeling on my walls?

Peeling is usually caused by dampness behind the wall or by poor surface preparation. We check for seepage first and treat it before repainting, otherwise the new paint will fail the same way.

Do I need to repaint the exterior every year?

No. A well-prepared weather-resistant system lasts several years, but humidity and sun do wear exterior paint down, so repaint when you see fading, chalking or peeling rather than on a fixed schedule.
