Full guide

Why Larnaca homes get this: External paint cycles in Larnaca run 5–7 years rather than 10–15, due to intense UV plus combined coastal salt-air and salt-lake humidity exposure. Interior repaint demand is concentrated in the post-2022 buyer cohort upgrading older builder-grade finishes on freshly bought apartments. Salt humidity also raises mould-prevention prep work on north-facing walls.
