What to know locally in Tzaneen
Painters in Tzaneen usually start every job with a fungicidal wash, since walls in town, Politsi and Duiwelskloof grow mould and algae fast in the summer humidity. Farm packhouses and cold rooms around Letsitele need hygienic coatings and floor work, often booked between harvests. Lodges and cottages in Haenertsburg and Magoebaskloof need timber sanded and sealed regularly. Ask the painter to fix leaks and gutters before painting damp walls.
What gets painted in Tzaneen
Tzaneen sits in a green, subtropical valley below the Magoebaskloof mountains, and humidity is the biggest enemy of paint here. Summers are hot, wet and sticky, so mould, mildew and algae grow quickly on walls, ceilings and roofs, especially in shaded gardens and on south facing walls. Timber decks and window frames rot if they are not sealed. Homes in town, farmhouses and packhouses on the citrus, avocado, mango and banana farms around Letsitele, and holiday homes in Haenertsburg all need regular attention. Farm managers, homeowners, lodge owners, landlords and schools ask for painters, waterproofing and mould resistant paint most, usually before the summer rains arrive.
Typical interior painting requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: bedrooms, lounges, kitchens and bathrooms repainted room by room while the family lives there
- Factories, farms and mines: canteens, offices and change rooms in factories and warehouses repainted
- Shops, offices and restaurants: offices, shops and restaurant dining rooms repainted overnight or over a weekend
