House and Villa Painters in Nai Yang and Sakhu

Life in Nai Yang and Sakhu revolves around the airport and the national park

Sakhu sub-district is in the north-west of Phuket. Phuket International Airport adjoins it on the north side, and Nai Yang Beach is home to the headquarters of Sirinat National Park. Further south, beyond a ridge, is Nai Thon Beach. Among all the areas where we paint in Phuket, Nai Yang and Sakhu is the zone where a large share of residents work for the airport, the airlines and the hotels. The long-term rental market is busy, and many buildings were put up to be let.

What buildings are there in Nai Yang and Sakhu?

Rental condos and apartments

Low-rise condos and apartment blocks stand around the airport approach road and the road to Nai Yang Beach. Tenants include airport staff, cabin crew and travellers staying before or after a flight. A unit that changes hands often picks up scratches, luggage scuffs and wall marks sooner than one the owner lives in, so owners repaint the interior in cycles between tenancies. The method, and what to arrange with the juristic office, is on the page about painting condos and rental units.

Detached houses, townhomes and row houses for working people

The inner sois of Sakhu hold local family houses, townhomes and rows of rental rooms. These fall under painting complete houses and townhomes, where walls, fence and steel gate are commonly done in one visit.

Small lodgings, restaurants and shops near Nai Yang Beach

The Nai Yang beach road has guesthouses, bungalows, beachside restaurants and vehicle hire shops. These businesses want a fast finish outside the tourist season. How the hours are arranged is explained under painting for commercial buildings and businesses.

Hillside villas around Nai Thon

Nai Thon Beach, in the south of the sub-district, is a quiet bay with sea-view villas and condos on the slopes. The road in climbs and drops over the hill, so work at height and the delivery of scaffolding are assessed house by house.

Nai Yang Beach is lined with casuarina trees. What does that mean for paint?

A long, shady belt of casuarinas runs the length of Nai Yang Beach. Buildings behind the trees gain shade and some shelter from the wind, and they also receive needles, sap and the damp held under the canopy. Walls and awning roofs build up brown and black staining. Salt air from the sea still gets through, so steel fences, balcony railings and sign frames rust in spots.

Houses further in, towards Thepkrasattri Road and the airport side, meet less salt, but the land is open, windy and sunny, and dark exterior colours fade quickly. For painters in Nai Yang and Sakhu, an exterior job starts with washing off stains, sanding rust and priming to suit each surface, followed by top coats made for outdoor use. The whole system is described on the page for exterior painting of buildings and homes. Phuket Pro Painters does not take on waterproofing or leak repair. A flat roof or wall with that kind of problem must be fixed by a specialist before painting.

What has to be planned for site access in Nai Yang and Sakhu?

How can an owner who lives in another province or abroad arrange a job?

Many condo owners in Nai Yang do not live in Phuket and leave the unit with an agent. Our team travels there to survey and measure for free, and can collect keys from the agent or the juristic office. The written quotation is sent for checking before work starts, every time. Owners may choose labour only or labour with paint. The painters have more than 10 years of experience and communicate in English, and the workmanship warranty after handover follows the terms written in the quotation. Call 063-004-0115 or use WhatsApp.

North of the airport is a separate zone, described under painters in Mai Khao. Owners with a second property in the city can read about painting old shophouses and homes in Phuket Town.
