What to do before painting walls or ceilings after water damage, roof leaks or damp problems in Cyprus.
Quick answer
You should not paint over water damage until the source of moisture is fixed and the wall or ceiling is fully dry. Painting too early can cause stains, bubbling and peeling.
Find the source first
Water damage may come from roof leaks, plumbing, balcony issues, window seals or condensation. The cause must be repaired before painting.
Drying and preparation
Affected surfaces may need drying time, stain blocking primer, plaster repair, sanding and proper repainting.
When to call a professional
If stains return, damp smells appear or paint bubbles, the problem is probably not only cosmetic. Further inspection may be needed.
Final recommendation
Fix the water problem first, then repair and repaint. This prevents repeated damage and wasted money.
