Landed House Painting Services in Singapore

Athena Best Painting Services provides professional landed house painting Singapore homeowners rely on, covering interior and exterior painting for bungalows, semi-detached houses and terrace houses across the island. From weatherproof facade coatings to clean, durable interior finishes, our team handles every part of a landed home.

What Our Landed Home Painting Covers

Landed properties have far more surface area and detail than a typical flat, so we cover the whole home in one coordinated project. Our painters work across every level and external feature, giving multi-storey homes a consistent, polished finish inside and out.

Exterior Painting for Singapore's Climate

A landed home's exterior takes the full force of Singapore's tropical weather: intense sun, heavy rain and constant humidity. Without the right system, walls quickly develop fading, chalking, and black or green growth. We treat the exterior as a protective system, not just a colour coat.

Every facade job starts with thorough pressure-washing and surface preparation to remove dirt, chalk and existing mould or algae. We treat cracks, repair spalling concrete and re-seal problem areas before any paint goes on. The walls are then finished with weatherproof exterior coatings containing anti-mould and anti-algae additives, so the surface stays cleaner and the colour holds up against sun and rain for years.

Interior Painting

Inside a landed home, we deliver smooth, even walls and ceilings with minimal disruption to your household. We protect floors, furniture and fixtures, repair cracks and dents, sand and prime where needed, and apply premium low-odour paints in clean, straight lines. High ceilings, stairwell voids and double-volume spaces are handled with the correct access gear so the finish is uniform from floor to top edge.

Our Process

  1. Site assessment and quote – we visit the property, measure the work, check surface condition and access needs, then provide a fixed, itemised quotation.
  2. Scaffolding and safe high-access – we set up proper scaffolding, towers or lifts for upper storeys and tall facades before work begins.
  3. Surface preparation – washing, scraping, crack and spalling repair, sanding, masking and priming so the new paint bonds and lasts.
  4. Premium paints, applied properly – trusted brands such as Nippon, Dulux and Jotun, applied in two coats for full, even coverage.
  5. Inspection and 1-year workmanship warranty – we walk the job with you and back our work with a one-year workmanship warranty.

Premium Paints We Use

We specify paint systems to suit each surface and its exposure, drawing on established brands proven in Singapore's climate:

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to paint a landed house in Singapore?

A typical semi-detached or terrace house takes about 5 to 10 working days, while larger bungalows can run 2 to 3 weeks. The timeline depends on storeys, total wall area, the amount of crack and surface repair needed, and whether both interior and exterior work are done together. We confirm a firm schedule after the on-site assessment.

How often should the exterior of a landed home be repainted in Singapore's weather?

In Singapore's hot, humid and rainy climate, exterior facades usually need repainting every 4 to 6 years. Walls that face heavy afternoon sun or constant rain, and surfaces near trees, may show algae, mould or fading sooner. A quality weatherproof coating with proper preparation helps stretch the interval toward the longer end.

Do you use anti-mould and anti-algae paint for exterior walls?

Yes. For landed exteriors we apply weatherproof coatings with anti-fungal and anti-algae additives that resist the black and green growth common on damp Singapore walls. We pressure-wash and treat existing mould before painting so the new coating bonds properly and stays clean for longer.

What affects the cost of painting a landed house?

The main cost factors are total wall area and number of storeys, the condition of the surfaces (cracks, spalling concrete, peeling or flaking paint), the paint system chosen, and access needs such as scaffolding for high or hard-to-reach walls. Exterior weatherproof systems and extensive repair work cost more than a straightforward interior repaint. We give a fixed, itemised quote after inspection.

How do you access high or double and triple-storey walls safely?

We use proper scaffolding, mobile towers or boom lifts depending on the height and layout, rather than relying on ladders for upper storeys. All high-access work follows safe working-at-height practices so your gable ends, second and third-storey facades and roof eaves are painted thoroughly and safely.

Painting a landed home in Singapore: the full guide

Interior and exterior are two different jobs

A landed repaint is usually quoted as two jobs that happen to share a crew. The interior is about finish quality and living around the work. The exterior is about weatherproofing and getting people safely onto a second or third storey.

Booking both together saves money because the scaffold goes up once. Interior alone starts at $2,888, exterior alone at $3,888, and the two together at $5,888.

Access is what moves the price

Everything under six metres is reachable from scaffold that we include in the quote. Above that, or where the elevation sits over a drop, a gondola or a rope-access team is needed, and that is the single biggest variable in a landed quote.

We can see most of it from the road before quoting. Send the address and we will tell you which category your house falls into.

The parts that are not wall

A landed exterior is rarely just render. There is usually timber fascia, metal gates and railings, a boundary wall that faces the street, and eaves that have not been touched since the house was built.

Each of those takes a different system. Timber needs a flexible exterior coating that moves with it. Metal needs rust treatment back to bare steel, then a zinc primer. Painting all of them with the same emulsion is why the last job failed after two years.

Elevations age at different rates

The wall that takes the afternoon sun will chalk while the shaded side still looks fine. The elevation that catches the monsoon grows algae in the texture.

We quote the whole exterior but specify by elevation: a UV-stable system where the sun hits, a fungicidal package where it stays damp. If your budget only stretches to part of it this year, do the sun and rain elevations first.

Boundary walls and what the neighbours see

The boundary wall is the first thing anyone sees and the last thing most quotes include. It is also the surface most likely to have rising damp, because it sits on the ground with no damp course.

If the bottom foot is blistering, it needs a breathable coating rather than a standard exterior acrylic, or the same blistering comes back in a year.

The warranty

We warranty landed exterior work for two years rather than one. Exterior coatings either hold through two monsoon seasons or they do not, and a one-year warranty expires before you find out.

Common questions

How much does it cost to paint a landed house in Singapore?

Interior starts at $2,888, exterior alone at $3,888, and both together at $5,888. Access drives the number more than floor area does, so a three-storey house on a tight plot costs more than a wider two-storey one.

Is scaffolding included in a landed painting quote?

Anything under six metres is inside the price. Above that, or where an elevation sits over a drop, a gondola or rope access is needed and we quote it as a visible line rather than adding it later.

Do you paint gates, railings and timber fascia?

Yes, and each takes a different system. Metal is treated back to bare steel and takes a zinc primer. Timber takes a flexible exterior coating that moves with it. Using one emulsion across all of them is why most landed repaints fail early.

How long does exterior paint last on a landed house here?

Five to seven years on sheltered elevations and three to five on the walls taking afternoon sun and the monsoon. We warranty exterior work for two years, because a coating either survives two monsoon seasons or it does not.
