Not All Landed Property Will Have 5 Years Warranty For Exterior Painting

By PaintingGuy On July 6, 2010 Under General, Landed Property | 499 views

For landed property owners, you will want to consider painting your house exterior every 5 years, as most of the exterior paints they give the 5 years warranty. That also explains why HDBs do a make over every five years.

But there is a slight problem for some landed property owners, especially for those living near the coastal lines or sea.

It is main due to the natural erosion called the sea water or salt water. Although the sea will not be the one hitting on the walls of the property, but the moisture or the vapor from the sea that will be the one causing the problem. It has been known that salt water increase the rate of erosion.

The exterior paints will not be able to last long, and why coastal properties tend to be so much more expensive than those more in lands and high in maintenance fees too. From our experience, the most it will last is 3 or 4 years depending on the situation too.

You might ask what happens for the interior wall painting? Is it the same as the exterior?

Yes it faces the same destiny as long as you are near the sea. So we are not able to offer the 2 year warranty for your interior painting as well.

Note: All painting contractors can give the 5 years warranty for your exterior wall, as long as it’s not near the sea. If they do not provide the 5 year warranty even if you live in land, don’t do not use them.
