Roof Painting & Coating in Kenya – BrushMasters Painters project

Roof Painting & Coating in Kenya

Restore faded or rusting mabati, tile and concrete roofs with rust treatment, primer and UV-resistant roof paint.

A faded or rusting roof makes even a well-kept house look tired, and rust eventually leads to leaks. Our roof painting service in Kenya restores mabati, tile and concrete roofs at a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Our roof painting process

  1. Safety set-up and roof inspection
  2. Cleaning: removing dirt, moss and loose paint
  3. Rust treatment: wire-brushing and spot-priming corroded areas
  4. Full coat of rust-inhibiting primer (metal) or sealer (tiles/concrete)
  5. Two coats of UV-resistant roof paint
  6. Gutters, fascia boards and flashings

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does roof painting cost in Kenya?

Roof painting typically costs KES 250–550 per m² including cleaning, rust treatment, primer and two coats. A 150 m² bungalow roof usually costs about KES 40,000–80,000.

What is the best paint for a mabati roof?

Use a rust-inhibiting metal primer followed by two coats of a dedicated UV-resistant roof paint. Ordinary wall paint should never be used on iron sheets.

Can you paint over a rusty roof?

Light surface rust can be treated by wire-brushing and priming before painting. Badly corroded or holed sheets should be replaced first.

How long does roof paint last?

A properly prepared and painted roof typically lasts 5–7 years before it needs recoating, depending on exposure.
