What to know locally in Stellenbosch
Classic white walls with dark green, black or natural timber shutters are the look of the old town, and most owners keep to it. Walls under the oaks in central Stellenbosch and Idas Valley stay damp and grow mould, so ask for a mould wash and a mould resistant exterior paint. For student rentals, a scrubbable low sheen interior paint saves money at the next changeover.
What gets painted in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university town with one of the best known heritage centres in the country, and painting here is shaped by both. The oak lined streets of the old town, such as Dorp Street, have white gabled Cape Dutch and Georgian houses that are repainted with care, often in white with dark green or black shutters. Around them are many student houses and flats that need quick repaints between leases, plus wine estates, Technopark offices and new estates towards Jamestown. Winter rain and shade under the oaks bring damp and mould, while summer sun is strong. Landlords, heritage owners, estate managers and the university sector ask for painters most.

Who asks for interior paint around Stellenbosch, most often first:
- Landlords and sellers: a durable colour that is easy to touch up and survives tenants and inspections
- Homeowners: washable walls in the lounge, bedrooms and kitchen, with PVA on the ceilings
