Nugegoda's older housing means painters here spend as much time on preparation as on paint: filling cracks, replacing failed putty and dealing with damp patches on walls that have not been touched in twenty years.

What to expect

  • Professionals covering Nugegoda, Kotte and the High Level Road corridor
  • Wall area measured and quoted per square foot, not guessed by room
  • A clear statement of paint brand, grade and number of coats
  • Putty, sanding and crack filling priced openly rather than skipped

Helpful tips

Budget for preparation separately and insist it is itemised. Putty, sanding and crack filling add Rs 30 to Rs 70 per square foot, and a quote that omits them is not cheaper, it is just incomplete.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about hiring in Nugegoda

Questions about finding a tradesperson in Nugegoda? Here are the answers homeowners ask most.

Because it is most of the labour. Filling, sanding and priming a wall that has cracked or lost its putty takes longer than applying the paint. On a well-prepared wall the paint itself is the quick part.

No. Paint over damp and it will blister within months. Find the water source first, whether a leaking pipe, a failed gutter or rising damp, fix it, and let the wall dry for two to three weeks before painting.
