Nepal is a country with unpredictable weather. The home suffers a lot during the year as it experiences the blazing summers and heavy monsoon rain and the chilly winter and high humidity. However, whilst we tend to spend a lot in interiors, we tend to ignore the greatest form of protection, which is the exterior walls. The exterior of your house is its initial defense. Moisture, UV rays, contaminants, and fungal proliferation may ruin the structure, discolour the colour, and necessitate run of the mill repair when unprotected. This is the point where the good exterior paint and the weather solutions come in. This blog will discuss why it is necessary to weather-proof your walls and how the Apollo Paints premium exterior range can make your home safe, beautiful and long-lasting. |
Protect your home from rain, sun, and humidity — the smart way.

Why Exterior Paint Matters More Than You Think
Shields In Adverse Weather Nepal's climate is diverse. Monsoon rains, intense sun during the summer and frost during winter can all affect the condition of your walls. Exterior paint serves as a protective layer and it keeps the down-pour out, blocks harsh UV-rays, and it cannot crack under a change of temperature. |
2. Dampness and Leakage Prevented.
One of the most widespread issues encountered by house owners is dampness. The absorption of moisture by the walls results in:
- Peeling paint
- Fungus and algae
- Cracks
- Mold (which is bad for health)
A powerful outer coating does not allow any moisture to get into the building.
3. Enhances Aesthetic Appeal
The exterior of your home speaks of your taste and style. Good paint has a high-grade quality that ensures that it retains its color and smoothness even after several years making your house look new and enjoyable.
4. Protects Structural Integrity
The plaster becomes weak with time due to moisture and heat. Expenditure on exterior paint provides a protective coating which makes a great difference in protecting the effect of weather on the structure of your home.
