Interior Wall Painting for Residential Spaces
Wall painting on interior and exterior surfaces as well as on different types of substrates will require different paint types and techniques.
In the case of interior painting of Singapore homes and houses, the steps taken to paint them are rather standard. For new flats or houses where walls have been only provided first coat of white paint, it does not require sealer to prime the walls as there were no paint layers or environmental conditions that may have deteriorated the walls. Interior paint selections are aplenty to choose from in the market, Nippon and Dulux being the more popular brands.
Interior Wall Paint Types
There are regular paint types such as Nippon Vinilex or Dulux-All suitable for such interior walls. Home owners who are looking for additional features such as low odour (low VOC), washable, or anti-fungal properties in paints will also have a wide variety of premium paints to choose from.
Wet areas such kitchen and bathroom walls (if they are not tiled) will need paint with mould-guarding properties to protect these surfaces from grease and moisture.
Interior Wall Painting for Commercial Spaces
For offices, partitions that are made of timber frameworks are often used. They are then to be boarded up and plastered before they are painted. Very often this lies in the skill of the base coating to hide gaps, nails and screws so that the paint finish can be even and appear as though they are just like brick walls.
Pantries in offices are frequently exposed to spillage and dirt. Therefore anti-mould or easy-to-wash paints are usually sort after for damp areas such as the pantry for easier cleaning and maintenance.
Exterior Wall Painting Services for Buildings
The facades of buildings are not as flat as interior surfaces obviously. Building structures are made up of structural elements like columns and beams, thus giving the external surfaces very interestingly profiled bases for painters to work on. Clients can exercise their colour creativity in playing up certain protruded elements with different paint colors to give more texture.
Shophouses in Singapore are often seen with intricate structural detailing such as different arches and pillars, of which, governed by the URA Conservation Guidelines, are not allowed to be modified. This however gives rise to opportunities to use paint in enhancing the existing architectural features.
Prior cleaning to the external wall surfaces is necessary; by way of high pressure water-jet to minimize any dirt or debris that could be trapped over the years in order to improve the paint adhesion and longevity of the paint quality.
Exterior Wall Paint Types
Using primer sealers for external painting is necessary in repainting or for new walls because of the constant weathering from outside climatic conditions. This is followed by applying exterior paints such as Dulux Weathershield or Nippon Weatherbond.
Be sure to check on the weather forecast before commissioning any external painting job. Exterior painting cannot be carried out during rainy days, neither can it be done just before the rain otherwise the paint will not be able to dry properly and chances are blistering or bubbling of the painted surface will occur in no time and repainting may be required.
