Painters in Maharagama and the surrounding schemes handle a lot of first repaints on houses ten to twenty years old, plus new work on recently completed builds. Labour runs roughly 10 to 15 per cent below central Colombo.
If your house is newly built, wait for the plaster to cure properly before painting. New plaster needs two to three weeks minimum in Sri Lankan conditions, and longer in the monsoon. Painting early traps moisture and is the most common cause of early peeling.

Frequently asked questions
Questions about finding a tradesperson in Maharagama? Here are the answers homeowners ask most.
At least two to three weeks, and longer in wet weather or in a shaded, poorly ventilated room. This is the single most common cause of paint failure on new houses, and no paint grade compensates for it.
Labour is typically 10 to 15 per cent lower. Paint itself costs the same island-wide, so on a supplied-and-applied quote the difference is smaller than people expect.
