Hi, im painting contractor...
my advice if u want good quality works and long lasting result you got to spend more..
If you spent little, the painter will rush the painting job and will get undesirable result and messy..
sometimes the painter will skip the painting process and cheating here and there..
Painting process..
1) Prep - make the surface smooth and ready to paint... (waterjet or clean the fungus, patch up cracks and holes, scrape old paint flakes, skim coating)
if many flakes come out and rusty - paint remover and sand paper will do and it will cost you.. )
2) Undercoat - with 1 coat of sealer/primer...(new ceilings and walls must put undercoat)
3) Finishing touch - with 2 or (3 coat if neceesary) of finishing paints..
For people with tight budget cheaper emulsion paint will do like Matex gold (5litre RM 60) or q lac from nippon. it can last many years if done with undercoat...Some people go for cheaper paint bcoz they want to change colors few years later..so its up to u..
For exterior get the weatherbond/weathershield/jotashield or something similar. use undercoat..undercoat..undercoat...never use interior paint or cheap emulsion paint...
If you got time opt to buy the paint yourself and ask the contractor to quote for labour.. Nowadays many shop can send the paint to your house so you wont get the trouble to load it to your car and unload it..
if you need my services,

Thanks for your very sincere comments, by the way, would like to seek for your opinions, for plaster ceiling, in term of durability, you will recommend Maxilite Plus Interior or Pentalite Classic as ICI emphasis Maxilite plus suit for economical demand while Pentalite comes with highly durable and also do mentioned suitable for Plaster while Maxilite only emphasis interior ceiling but didnt mention for plaster ceiling.my advice if u want good quality works and long lasting result you got to spend more..
