How The Work Runs
- straighten
Step 1
Site measurement
We measure the actual paintable area rather than quoting on carpet area, so the estimate does not move once work starts.
- inventory
Step 2
Written quotation
Itemised by surface, product and number of coats. Putty, primer and finish coats are listed separately so nothing is quietly dropped.
- shield
Step 3
Masking and protection
Furniture sheeted and moved to the centre, floors covered, fittings and switch plates masked before a brush is opened.
- construction
Step 4
Surface preparation
Old flaking paint scraped, cracks filled, two coats of putty where needed, sanded level, then primer. This stage decides how the finish lasts.
- brush
Step 5
Finish coats
Two coats of the agreed emulsion, applied with the correct roller or spray for the surface, with drying time respected between coats.

Step 6
Cleaning and handover
Paint spots removed, fittings refitted, site cleaned and a walkthrough with you before the final payment.

Getting Painting Done Properly
Painting is the cheapest way to transform a home and among the easiest to get badly wrong. Most disappointing paint jobs fail not because of the paint but because of what happened before it — inadequate surface preparation, skipped primer, or putty applied over damp walls.
The finish you see on handover looks similar either way. The difference shows up in eighteen months, when one job still looks fresh and the other is peeling at the corners.
Preparation Decides How Long It Lasts
A proper repaint means scraping loose and flaking paint back to a sound surface, filling cracks, applying one or two coats of putty where the wall needs levelling, sanding smooth, and priming before any finish coat goes on.
Contractors quoting significantly below the market almost always save time here, because it is the stage a customer cannot easily inspect once the finish coat covers it. Ask specifically how many putty coats are included, whether primer is included, and whether the quote assumes scraping or simply painting over.
On a damp wall, no amount of good paint helps. Seepage must be traced and fixed before painting, otherwise the finish will blister within a season and the money is wasted.
Understanding The Quotation
- check_circle
Quoted on paintable area, not carpet area
Wall area is typically three to three and a half times carpet area. A quote per square foot of carpet area is either much more expensive than it looks or measured differently — always confirm the basis.
- check_circle
Putty and primer listed separately
If they are not itemised, assume they are not included and the price will move once work starts.

Number of finish coats
Two coats is standard. One coat over a different base colour will not cover evenly, whatever the contractor says.

Material brand and product line
Every brand has economy through premium lines at very different prices. "Asian Paints" alone tells you nothing about cost or durability.

Furniture protection and cleaning
Should be included. Where it is not, you are either doing it yourself or paying extra later.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does painting a 3BHK cost?
For a typical 1,500 sq.ft. 3BHK in Delhi NCR, a repaint with economy emulsion runs roughly ₹48,000 to ₹62,000, and premium emulsion ₹64,000 to ₹88,000. Fresh painting with full putty on new walls costs more, around ₹82,000 to ₹1,10,000. The range within each band comes down to wall condition, ceiling height and how much surface preparation is genuinely needed.
How long does it take?
A 3BHK repaint typically takes four to six days with a supervised crew, allowing proper drying between putty, primer and two finish coats. Be wary of quotes promising a full repaint in two days. Rushing the drying time between coats is the most common cause of a finish that fails early.
Do I need to move out?
Usually not. Work is normally done room by room with furniture moved to the centre and sheeted, so the house stays liveable. Water-based emulsions have low odour and are safe to occupy the same day. Oil-based enamels on wood and metal have stronger fumes, so those rooms are better left ventilated overnight.
What warranty comes with it?
Brand warranties run three to seven years depending on the product line, and cover the paint film against defects such as flaking and excessive fading. Read what is excluded. Failures caused by underlying dampness or structural seepage are not covered by any paint warranty, which is why the leak must be fixed first.
Should I paint before selling?
Yes, and it is among the highest-return preparations available. Fresh neutral paint typically returns three to four times its cost in realised price and shortens time on market. Use neutral shades. A colour you love narrows your buyer pool, and buyers mentally deduct the cost of repainting from their offer.
