How a One-Day HDB Repaint Runs
The schedule for an occupied flat, so you know exactly what your day looks like.
- 8.30am — Setup. Crew arrives, furniture shifted to room centres and wrapped, floors and skirtings masked, ventilation set up.
- 9.00am — Prep. Cracks, hairlines and nail holes filled and sanded. Damp or mould-prone areas treated before any paint goes on.
- 10.30am — Sealer. Anti-mould sealer coat rolled across all walls and ceilings — the step most quotations omit.
- 12.30pm — First topcoat. Applied room by room while the supervisor checks coverage and edges.
- 3.30pm — Finishing coats to full coverage. Cut-in lines, ceiling edges and door frames finished.
- 6.00pm — Handover. Clean-up, furniture back in place, walkthrough with you. Touch-up window available the next day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Pico X Health Painting?
One-day finish: Every non-limewash HDB repaint is completed in a single working day, plus a short touch-up window the following day. Powered by efficient process, mechanical ventilation and a right-sized crew. Supervisor on site, start to finish: A dedicated supervisor is on site from setup through final handover — checking prep, sealer coverage, finish quality and clean-up. No drop-in, drop-out crews. Sealer included on every wall: Every quote includes a sealer coat under the topcoat — for adhesion, stain-blocking and a longer-lasting finish. 5-year peeling & workmanship warranty: Backed end-to-end. If it peels or fails on workmanship within 5 years, we come back and fix it.
What does "full coverage" mean, and why don't you promise two coats?
Full coverage means the finished wall shows one even colour and sheen, with no old colour, patches, roller marks or shiny spots showing through, at the thickness the paint maker recommends. Paint hides a wall because its pigment (mainly titanium dioxide) scatters light, and that only works fully once the dried paint layer is thick enough. So we paint until the wall is fully covered — usually two coats, sometimes three. A wall needs more when the colour changes a lot (dark to light, or bright reds and yellows, which hide less), on fresh plaster or skim-coat patches that soak up paint unevenly, where water or mould stains bleed through, or on very porous, chalky old walls. Our sealer evens out how the wall absorbs paint so the topcoats dry evenly. Any extra coats needed to reach full coverage are included in your price — no add-on charge.
Is two coats always enough? Can more coats cause peeling?
Two coats is a common rule of thumb, and many paint makers do recommend it, but a fixed number does not guarantee a good finish. More is not always better either. Piling on coats beyond the recommended thickness can lead to cracking, wrinkling and loss of grip, which ends in peeling. Painting the next coat before the one underneath has dried traps moisture and causes blistering and peeling — a real risk in Singapore's humidity, where paint dries slower. And extra coats over damp, dusty, chalky or flaking walls only add weight to a weak base, so the whole layer can lift off. That is why we focus on preparation, the right sealer and proper drying time between coats, and apply only as many coats as full coverage needs. This reflects general coating practice and our own on-site experience.
What's included in an HDB painting package in Singapore?
Every package includes a site walkthrough and fixed written scope, furniture and floor protection, crack and hairline repair, premium anti-mould sealer on all walls, topcoats to full coverage, all ceilings, moisture-blocking paint in toilets, post-service recovery and a 5-year peeling & workmanship warranty. Most painters leave sealer out of the quotation to look cheaper — ours is always in scope.
What is not included in the package?
Wallpaper removal, extensive skim-coating of badly damaged walls, structural or spalling concrete repair, external facade work and specialty finishes such as limewash or microcement are quoted separately. Anything outside scope is flagged during the walkthrough, before work starts.
Can you paint an occupied flat while we live in it?
Yes. For occupied flats we work room by room, wrap and shift furniture to the centre, use low-odour paints with mechanical ventilation, and hand back each room usable the same evening. Most families stay in the flat throughout.
How does the 5-year warranty work?
The warranty covers non-structural peeling and workmanship defects for 5 years from handover — if a surface peels or a workmanship issue appears, we return and rectify it at no cost. Damage from structural leaks, spalling concrete or third-party renovation is excluded. See our warranty terms for the full scope.
Which paint brand is best for HDB flats?
We recommend Benjamin Moore, Nippon, Gush, and Breathe air-purifying paints for HDB flats. All brands are eco-friendly, low-VOC, and specifically chosen to handle Singapore's humid climate. Your choice depends on your budget and specific needs like mould resistance or air purification.
Can you paint my HDB in one day?
Yes! Our ONE DAY painting service is specifically designed for HDB flats. We use fast-drying, low-odour paints and a professional team to complete most HDB painting projects in a single day, minimizing disruption to your daily life.
Do I need HDB approval to paint my flat?
No HDB approval is required for interior painting as it's considered minor works. You're free to paint your HDB flat in any color you choose. However, if you're painting the exterior or common areas, management approval may be needed.
