Kartik Renovation’s Expert Tips for Professional Painting Work
Professional painting work is much more than just putting color on walls when it comes to changing a room. It’s about the science of surfaces, how long they last, how good the finish is, and how much they will be worth in the long run. We at Kartik Renovation have seen how the right way to paint can make homes, offices, and businesses in Delhi, Noida, and Gurugram look better.
This guide is based on real-life experience and is meant to help homeowners and property owners understand what real professional painting work looks like and how to do it right.
What does it mean to do professional painting?
Painting professionally is not a quick job that makes things look better. It is a methodical, technical process. It has:
- A thorough inspection of the site
- Correctly preparing the surface
- Picking the right paint for the weather in India
- Techniques for skilled application
- Execution that is clean and delivery on time
Local painters only care about how fast they can paint, but professional painters care about the quality of the finish, how long it lasts, and making sure there are no problems in the future.
How We Do Professional Painting: A Step-by-Step Guide
1. Inspecting the site and understanding what is needed
Every project starts with a look around. We look at:
- The state of the walls (cracks, dampness, peeling)
- How old it is
- Layers of paint before
- Room use and lighting
This lets us suggest not only a color but also the right type and finish of paint.
2. Preparing the surface (the most important step)
This step is the most common reason why paint fails.
- Professional surface preparation includes:
- Filling in cracks and leveling
- Putty application (one to two coats as needed)
- Sanding to make it smooth
- Damp-proofing treatment (if needed)
- Putting on primer based on how the wall looks
In Delhi NCR, the humidity and dust from construction make it necessary to prepare the surface.
3. Choose paint based on how you plan to use it, not on what is popular right now.
We help our clients pick paint based on
- What the room is for (bedroom, kitchen, office)
- Needs for washability
- Being in the sun or in the rain
- Money vs. time
For example, we suggest cost-effective emulsions for rental properties. For high-end homes, we recommend high-end washable or textured finishes that last longer.
4. How to Use Professional Tools
We use:
- Rollers for smooth finishes
- Brushes for edges and fine details
- For some projects, use spray application.
No shortcuts are allowed; each coat must dry completely before the next one is put on.
5. Final check, touch-ups, and clean handover
Before the handover:
- We look for patches or marks that aren’t even.
- Do the touch-ups that are needed
- Make sure to clean up any paint splatters.
- Give someone a space that is ready to use
- This is where professionalism really shines.
Real-World Experience: Problems with Painting That We Fix
Case 1: Delhi’s Old Flat with Badly Damaged Walls
A client had an old apartment that had cracks, paint that was peeling off, and wet spots.
Our answer:
- Mesh for fixing cracks and waterproofing
- Use cement-based putty instead of regular wall putty.
- Primer that keeps moisture out
- Emulsion that lasts a long time
Result: The walls stayed strong and new even after several monsoons.
Case 2: A new builder floor in Gurugram
The builder rushed the work, which caused the walls to be uneven.
Our answer:
- Extra coat of leveling
- Sanding with a machine
- Matte premium finish to hide small flaws
- The result is smooth, high-end walls without having to rebuild.
- Brands and finishes of paint we trust (from experience)
We only recommend brands after looking at the site’s conditions, not because they pay us.
Asian Paints, Berger, Dulux, and Nerolac are all brands you can trust.
✔ Best finishes:
- Matte for high-end interiors
- Satin for living rooms
- Families with kids can use washables.
- Paints that fight mold for kitchens and bathrooms
We don’t use low-quality distempers in long-term homes because they look good for a short time but don’t last long.
How to Avoid Common Mistakes Homeowners Make
Picking paint based only on color Getting painters without preparing the surface Not paying attention to wetness problems Choosing the lowest quote
Always ask:
- What will be done to prepare the surface?
- Which primer will you use?
- How many coats are there?
What kind of warranty or long-lastingness can you expect?
