Painting 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.
Typical paint brushes and rollers requests in the area come from:
- Landlords and sellers: a basic roller and tray set kept for quick touch-ups between tenants
- Homeowners: a brush set and roller kit to repaint a bedroom or touch up a lounge
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a small kit for after-hours touch-ups in a shop or restaurant
