House painting
House painting in Shivpuri: heat, highway dust and lakeside damp
What homes here deal with
Shivpuri town sits where major highways meet and is known for its lakes and the Madhav National Park. Homes along the highways collect dust, summers are hot, and houses near water bodies can see more damp on lower walls. Many families in the town also rent out rooms or run small guest houses, which means walls get more wear.
Products for each part of the house
- Front facade: Berger WeatherCoat Anti Dustt or Berger WeatherCoat Glow
- Roof over top-floor rooms: Berger HomeShield Roof Kool & Seal
- Rooms and passages: Berger Easy Clean
- Lower walls with damp: damp-resistant primer before paint
- Gates: Luxol enamel over metal primer
Getting the job done well
- Paint exteriors between October and March; avoid the monsoon months.
- Repair cracks and damp before buying finish paint.
- Use primer on new or repaired plaster.
- Buy all tins of a shade together and note the shade code.
- Ask your painter how many coats are included.
Before the painter starts: a short checklist
- Fix leaks and damp first; paint will not stop water coming through a wall
- Scrape loose and flaking paint; sand glossy patches so the new coat grips
- Fill cracks, then prime repaired spots and any bare plaster
- Use putty only where the wall is uneven, and sand it smooth
- Cover floors and furniture; remove switch plates and fittings
- Note the shade code of every tin, so a later top-up matches
Questions to ask your painter before work starts
- Which walls need scraping, primer or putty, and which do not?
- How many coats of each product are included in the price?
- Who supplies material, and will you show me the sealed tins and shade codes?
- How will furniture, floors and fittings be protected?
- How many days will the job take, and how long between coats?
