A fresh coat of paint can completely transform the look and feel of your home without requiring major renovations. Whether you are looking to refresh your walls, ceilings, or accent features, professional painting works can elevate your space while reflecting your personal style.
“Painting is more than just adding color; it’s about protecting the surfaces and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home,” says Ms. Isabella Chandi Orando, Senior Quantity Surveyor at Quantum Built and Environment Consultants (Pty) Ltd.
There are many types of painting techniques and finishes available. These include matte, satin, gloss, textured finishes, and specialty coatings for interiors and exteriors. While bright colors can make interiors pop, neutral tones provide timeless elegance and a sense of spaciousness.
Interior Painting
Mr. Ddamulira Bosco, CEO at Passions Services, explains that interior painting not only enhances aesthetics but also protects walls from wear and tear. He adds,
“Choosing the right paint type and color combination can drastically improve the mood and atmosphere inside your home. We help clients select finishes that are durable and visually appealing.”
Exterior Painting
For exteriors, paints are selected not just for color but for their durability against harsh weather conditions. Weather-resistant paints, UV-protective coatings, and waterproof primers ensure long-lasting beauty.
“Exterior painting protects the structure from moisture, sun damage, and general deterioration,” adds Mr. Bosco.
Why Professional Painting?
One of the biggest advantages of hiring professional painters is the quality of finish. Proper surface preparation, high-quality paint, and expert application ensure long-lasting results.
Professional painters can also guide you in color selection and design, helping to create a cohesive look throughout your home. “A professionally done paint job adds value, elegance, and a touch of refinement to any property,” says Ms. Chandi.
Maintenance
Properly applied and high-quality paints are easy to maintain. Washing walls periodically and addressing minor touch-ups can keep surfaces looking fresh for years.
“Maintenance is simple, but if low-quality paints are used or preparation is skipped, peeling and fading may occur faster,” Ms. Chandi notes.
Cost
Paint costs vary depending on quality, type, and finish. High-quality paints and specialty coatings are more expensive but offer longer durability and better coverage.
Mr. Peter Muwonge, officer in charge of landscaping and project supervision at Passions Services, says,
“For standard interior walls, premium paints range from Shs80,000 to Shs150,000 per room. Exterior walls may cost slightly more due to additional preparation and weather-resistant coatings.”
Appearance & Design Options
From bold accent walls to subtle textures and patterns, professional painting allows for unlimited design creativity. Faux finishes, murals, and decorative techniques can add a personalized touch to your space.
Advantages
Professional painting ensures uniform coverage, enhances property aesthetics, protects walls, and can even improve resale value. It also allows homeowners to achieve complex design effects that DIY painting often cannot match.
Natural & Eco-Friendly Paints
For health-conscious homeowners, eco-friendly paints with low VOCs are recommended. They are safer for indoor air quality and better for the environment.
Conclusion
Whether you’re refreshing a single room or painting your entire home, professional painting works and designs from Passions Services Ltd combine beauty, durability, and expert craftsmanship to enhance your living space.
