Homeowners urged to prepare properly for the future amid Melissa rebuild
Jamaican homeowners repairing and repainting after Hurricane Melissa can expect about seven years of performance from a well-applied exterior paint but only if surfaces are properly prepared first, according to Berger Paints Jamaica. Speaking at a fireside chat at H&L Rapid True Value in Kingston, Sean Boyce, sector commercial manager at Berger Paints Jamaica, said that as many homeowners rebuild after the hurricane and the island heads into periods of heavier rainfall, durability matters more than price.
