Chennai · Avadi — free site inspection
Exterior paint in Chennai has to survive salt air, driving monsoon rain and hard UV. It fails early almost every time because the old coat was painted over instead of removed, or because damp walls were sealed in. We prepare properly, treat the cause of the damp, then apply a weatherproof system.
Specialization
Be it — Apartment block, Independent house, Office building, Showroom, School, Hospital or Compound wall.
Systems & methods
Specifying the wrong system is the most common reason waterproofing and paintwork fails early. Here is how we choose.
Loose and flaking paint is scraped back to sound substrate, the surface is power-washed and allowed to dry fully. This is the step other quotes cut to look cheaper, and it is the reason their paint peels in two years.
Hairline cracks are opened into a V-groove and filled with a polymer-modified compound; structural cracks are treated separately. Hollow plaster is removed and re-rendered.
Black and green growth on the shaded, rain-facing side is a fungal problem. It is killed with a biocidal wash, not painted over, then sealed with an exterior primer suited to the substrate.
Two finish coats of exterior emulsion with a defined dry-film thickness. We specify the grade against your exposure and budget and tell you what warranty the manufacturer actually gives.

FAQ
It is quoted per sq ft of painted area and varies with the paint grade, the amount of surface preparation the building needs and the access method. We measure on site and give an itemised quotation that states the exact products.
Almost always one of three things — painting over loose old coating, painting over a damp wall without fixing the source, or skipping primer. We check for all three before quoting, and if there is active damp we recommend fixing that first.
Yes, both conventional scaffolding and rope access depending on the building and the site constraints. It is included in the quotation, not added later.

Interior work is judged on finish and on how you left the house. We mask and sheet everything, control dust during sanding, and hand back a clean site — with a wall finish that does not show roller lap marks in daylight.
Industrial painting is corrosion control, not decoration. Surface preparation grade, dry film thickness and coating system matter more than colour — and the work has to fit into shutdown windows without disrupting production.
