Why Paphos homes get this: External paint cycles in Paphos run 5–7 years rather than the 10–15 typical in northern Europe, due to intense UV and salt-air exposure (Kato Paphos / Geroskipou / Chloraka villas are within 1–2 km of the coast). White lime-wash limewash on traditional villas requires annual touch-up. Interior repaint demand is concentrated in the post-2022 renovation cohort upgrading older builder-grade finishes.
