Maliari Pro provides wall painting in Tbilisi, in apartments, private homes and commercial spaces. Before the work is agreed we look at the existing coating, the condition of the walls and the finish you want. Preparation, materials and labour are identified separately in the project assessment, so the quote stays readable from the start.
What we agree before starting
The job begins with a written description, so the scope reads the same way to both sides. The agreement covers:
- Which walls, recesses and edges are included.
- Where local repair is enough and where wider preparation is needed.
- Paint, colour, finish and the coating system.
- Protection of flooring, furniture and openings.
- Working hours, access and the handover procedure.
- How additional work is agreed if a hidden defect appears.
How the surface is prepared
Preparation decides how long the finish lasts. Loose and flaking areas are cleaned back to a sound layer, cracks are opened and filled, and the surface is then sanded. Filler is usually sanded with 120-180 grit paper, because a coarse scratch shows through the first coat. Primer is chosen for the substrate, not out of habit.
How much paint does a wall need
The wall area of a rectangular room is 2 × (length + width) × height, less the openings. Manufacturers usually state 10-12 m² of coverage per litre per coat, though a porous wall, or a dark colour going light, takes more. Two coats are standard. Use the calculator for a first estimate.
What conditions does the coating need
Most water-based paints are specified for application between +5 °C and +30 °C, with relative humidity below 80%. A second coat usually follows after 2-4 hours, while the film continues to harden for up to 28 days, and the wall is treated gently during that time. The product data sheet sets the exact intervals; see this explanation of drying.
A refresh, or preparing the substrate too
Repainting a sound wall and preparing a damaged or uneven surface are different volumes of work. Send photographs of peeling, cracks and earlier repairs — they show whether a local repair is enough or the whole wall needs levelling. If damp keeps returning, the cause must be resolved before painting. Read repainting old walls.
How the project is assessed
An assessment needs the paintable wall area, not only the apartment's floor area — in a 4 × 3 m room with a height of 2.8 m, the walls come to about three times the floor. Send dimensions, the floor level, access details and photographs. Labour, materials and additional repairs should appear separately in the quote.
How the result is checked
Where it helps we agree a sample on the wall itself, because a colour reads differently in the room's light than on a card. At handover the surfaces are checked in both daylight and artificial light, and anything outstanding is written down. Keep the paint name and colour code for future repairs. Send a project enquiry to discuss your walls and preferred dates.
