mine is 2.6 lagi expensive.  cry.gif
any way, my wall is new paint. and due to hacking for wiring and plaster ceiling...so i need to repaint the wall.

they quote me is 2 layer of paint only. should i ask 1 more layer for sealer? required o not?
now i cant notice or spot any uneven wall...my contractor say my wall is ok...he can help me touch up a bit...but i worry later have light then can spot it very clear.
*
yr one 2.6k only for interior?
it is better to put 1 layer sealer even thought yr walls have new paint, furthermore yr walls have been hacked.
yr situation same like me, bangla say no need sealer and just 2 layers paint. so doubt with their outcome quality sweat.gif
so that finally i chose mypainter even thought pay extra few hundred ringgit, at least feel safely hmm.gif

yes, dark feature walls need more layers if not hidding well.

Yes, quite true. For light color, 2 layer is enough (if your existing paint is white or light color). But for dark color, you may need more layer because you'll see some uneven spot.

btw, I got quote for 2 storey 1980 sqft internal only including ceiling & doors:
mypainter = RM2400
mytukangcat = RM2100
indon = RM1500

bro, u buy own paint for mypainter or buy from them as well?

Wah...so cheap. I been quoted by them just workmanship already 5K. How come your only less than 3K? Is price you indicated is 2.7K is paint or ?
*
type if house
interior & exterior
skim coat all wall or portion plastered wall

all abv can vary the workmanship cost.

they qoute me all lum sum 3.8k included paint & material for all interior wall (skim portion plastered wall) + plaster ceiling, but exclude door + door flame.

they use nippon spotless paint + 5500 sealer + super matex ceiling white. Don't know reasonable or not as all lum sum cost hmm.gif

Better to get them to do labour only. You buy the paint yourself. With this, you can be more certain of the actual paint being used.
Some of these unscrupulous painters will use a lower grade paint from what that was agreed. You are not there full time to monitor. Even if you monitor, very difficult to control. So, ease of mind, you buy the paint yourself.  smile.gif

no doubt they sell paint more expensive than other shops but still reasonable which extra few ringgit only. my house is near to their shop so no point i buy own paint far away + time/effort for own carry. Since they are quite famous in town, dont think they will cheat our paint which use lower grade. hmm.gif

Guys
My house is intermediate 22 X 80. I plan to paint: -

- internal
- external walls
- main gate
- roof
- main and room door
- all grilles

Can this be done within RM5k provided I purchase the paint? Please advice

should can be, but exclude skim coat all intererior walls. labor for skim coat quite expensive.

My Indon worker charge me 1.6k to paint the house inside and outside, 1 base coat and 2 primer. I think it is very cheap maybe because I also give him do the whole house renovation so special price kua...If just the piant job alone maybe 2.5k?
*
1.6k consider very cheap for in & out side, but need to consider the outcome quality. Some cheap painter will not give so good job, such like area of wall corners, skirting, plug points and not provide touch up after you phase in and so on...
