One of the most frequent calls we receive in autumn-winter is from homeowners who haven't painted their home for eight or ten years. They've realised the walls are no longer white, but an indefinable greyish-yellow. Mediterranean light is very unforgiving on walls. Economical whites yellow due to slow oxidation, especially in rooms with direct sunlight or near the kitchen where steam and airborne oil are present. Furniture marks, splashes from daily life, and small knocks on corners accumulate.

We apply thick levelling filler over the textured surface and allow it to dry partially. We then sand with an orbital sander until the surface is completely smooth. We apply a sealing primer and two coats of plastic paint. The dust generated during sanding is considerable. We cover the entire room with plastic sheeting before starting and vacuum carefully upon completion. A standard 15 m² room, skimmed and painted, takes 2-3 days of work.

Many people say painting is easy. It's true, anyone can pick up a roller. The difference between an amateur and a professional result lies in the preliminary and post-painting steps that amateurs often skip. Covering furniture, floors, and skirting boards with quality plastic. Applying precise masking tape to edges and corners. Filling small holes and cracks with specific filler before painting, not after. Sanding between coats for a perfect finish. Applying primer when the wall requires it. Removing the tape before the paint is completely dry. These details differentiate paintwork that lasts 8-10 years from one that looks neglected within a month. For doors, frames, skirting, and any interior carpentry, synthetic or water-based enamel paint is used. Water-based acrylic is what we use most today: it dries quickly, has no solvent smell, is washable, and durable. It's applied with a spray gun or a very short-pile roller for a smooth finish. Never with a brush on large surfaces, as it leaves marks. For damp areas (kitchens, bathrooms), there are specific anti-damp and anti-mould plastic paints that resist condensation and steam without generating black mould spots. Their application requires a prior fungicidal primer if the wall already showed traces of mould.

Absolutely. Quality plastic sheeting, masking tape, foam board depending on the surface. Everything clean and vacuumed upon completion. We cover floors and furniture, fill, sand, prime, and apply at least two coats of paint. Precise edges with painter's tape, enamels applied with a spray gun or a short-pile roller, not a brush.
