Why Gdansk homes get this: Coastal humidity, salt air, and short summer working windows shorten exterior paint cycles to 6–8 years on coastal-facing elevations — well below the 10–12 years typical of inland Poland. Listed-building work in Główne Miasto requires conservator-approved colour palettes and traditional silicate or mineral paints. Interior repainting demand tracks the rental-turnover cycles in Wrzeszcz, Oliwa, and Przymorze.
