Common causes of paint peeling o r flaking include:

Moisture infiltration: Leaks, damp walls, o r high humidity weaken paint adhesion.

Poor surface preparation: Painting over dust, dirt, o r untreated surfaces reduces bonding.

Low-quality paint: Cheap o r incompatible paints tend to peel faster.

Sun and weather exposure: Exterior walls exposed to heat, rain, and sunlight experience faster deterioration.

Solutions/Preventive Measures:

Ensure walls are dry and clean before painting.

Use high-quality, weather-resistant paints suitable for local climate conditions.

Apply primer before painting to improve adhesion.

Repair leaks and control indoor moisture to prevent recurring peeling.
