prototype) The lower part of the walls of a house (near the floor) appear dump and begin to peel off a few years after construction. This happens most especially when the house is constructed in a location near wetlands. Task: Advise someone who wants to construct a house with walls that do not peel.​

Here's a list of a few reasons behind cracked or chipped walls:

Moisture-laden walls

Weather conditions

Incompatibility with the surface

Inferior-quality paints

Let’s discuss each of them one by one.

Explanation:

Lots of moisture

In a house, bathroom and kitchen are the two places where there is a lot of moisture and dampness. Therefore, you will see that these places are the first to report the problem of flaky paint. When moisture is absorbed, it passes through various coats of paint, removing the adhesive that sticks the paint to the wall. Therefore, you can spot paint coming off in the form of flakes or like a banana peel. This shows the extra moisture in the walls need to be addressed immediately.

Too much sunlight

Paint often chips off walls due to high temperatures. If direct sunlight hits the walls all day, it can cause the paint to dry out faster. The oil paints start to crack, while latex paints lose their quality to stick to the walls.

Incompatible paints

When painting, it is extremely important to use the same kind of paint on the surface that’s being coated. For instance, if it is latex paint, it isn’t compatible with oil-based paints and shouldn’t be painted on top of each other. If you are planning to use the leftover oil-paint as a second coat over the base coat of latex paint, then be prepared to see the paint coming off sooner than expected.

Also, make sure the surface on which you are about to paint is compatible with the paint you are using. For instance, smooth surfaces require a certain kind of paint and layering that keeps the coating intact. For uneven surfaces, it’s better to go for textured paint. It is important to prime and prep the surface first before applying a coat of paint to make sure the paint doesn’t come off easily.

Low-quality paints

Some paints seem good, especially to your wallet, but once you use them, you will face bad consequences. Inferior-quality paints do not adhere to the walls properly and also do not give a nice finish once the paint job is done. To avoid cracks in the walls, do not use low-quality or expired paints.
