Jewel Silk
A lower cost version of Silk Vinyl Emulsion with a tough and washable silky finish especially formulated for projects.
Fine architectural interior painting for living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and gypsum ceilings across Kenya with full floor masking and dustless sanding.
Our interior painting service is dedicated to transforming the living spaces of your home with precision cutting-in, smooth plaster finishes, and durable washable paints. We handle sitting rooms, dining areas, family TV rooms, master bedroom suites, children's bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and corridors. From minor nail-hole patching and hairline crack repairs through ceiling painting and baseboard enameling, we ensure crisp transitions between walls, ceilings, and architectural woodwork.
This service is designed for homeowners, apartment residents, and interior decorators looking to refresh worn living spaces, change room color schemes, or brighten rooms with high-reflectance architectural emulsions. Typical needs arise after several years of family living, when children leave scuff marks and fingerprints, when moving into a newly purchased house, or when upgrading to modern neutral palettes.
Included in standard work: moving furniture away from walls, floor drop-cloth masking, raking out and filling hairline plaster cracks, light sanding of sound previous paint, spot priming raw plaster, and two full coats of approved acrylic emulsion. Items requiring separate assessment include active water leaks from upstairs bathrooms, crumbling rising-damp plaster, large settlement cracks, and removing old wallpaper or peeling oil-based paints.
We match paint sheens to room lighting and lifestyle demands. For ceilings and formal living rooms with large windows, vinyl matt emulsion prevents surface glare and hides minor plaster waviness. For corridors, children's bedrooms, and dining areas, soft satin or silk vinyl offers wipeable, scrub-resistant protection against stains. For kitchens and bathrooms, specialized moisture-resistant formulations with fungicides prevent mildew and steam absorption.
Cost and time depend on total square meterage, ceiling heights (standard 2.6m versus double-height stairwells or cathedral ceilings), the density of furniture to move and mask, the number of coats required when changing colors dramatically, and the condition of interior plaster. Most single rooms are completed within 1 to 2 days, while a full 3-bedroom home interior requires 4 to 6 days.
We inspect wall condition, verify natural lighting, and confirm paint finish sheens for each room.

We use modern water-based low-VOC acrylic paints that dry rapidly and emit very little odor. However, for bedrooms, especially for young children or sensitive individuals, we generally recommend allowing at least 12 to 24 hours of good ventilation with open windows before sleeping in the newly painted room.
Yes. While standard wall quotations focus on wall and ceiling areas, painting interior flush doors, paneled timber doors, window reveals, and baseboards is commonly included. Woodwork is prepared by light sanding and finished with polyurethane or enamel finishes for durable protection.
Our painters use professional precision cutting-in brushes and high-grade low-tack painter tape along ceiling cornices and corners. This produces razor-sharp color separation without bleed or ragged edges.
For rooms with large windows and bright sunlight, vinyl matt or flat finishes are best. Glossier sheens create harsh light reflections and highlight subtle waves in the plaster, whereas matt finishes absorb light evenly, producing a calm, soft appearance.
Grease and cooking oils prevent paint from adhering. We wash kitchen cooking zones with an emulsifying degreaser, rinse with clean water, allow to dry, and apply a specialized stain-blocking primer before applying washable kitchen topcoats.
Paint feels dry to the touch within a couple of hours, but the resin requires approximately 14 days to fully cure and achieve maximum hardness. We advise waiting at least 3 to 5 days before hanging pictures or placing heavy furniture tight against the walls.
We inspect the site, calibrate concrete moisture levels with digital impedance meters, evaluate substrate soundness, and write an exact bill of quantities before quotation.
