Painting in Newcastle
Newcastle in northern KwaZulu-Natal grew around its steelworks and later drew textile and clothing factories, so industrial sheds, workshops and factory floors make up a big share of painting work. Homes in Arbor Park, Signal Hill, Lennoxton and Aviary Hill are mostly face brick and plaster with tiled or IBR roofs, while Madadeni and Osizweni have many smaller brick homes and RDP houses. Summers are hot with afternoon thunderstorms and hail, and winters bring cold nights and frost. Paint fades and chalks on west facing walls, and steel roofs need rust treatment. Factory managers, homeowners, landlords renting to workers and schools ask for painters, roof coatings and epoxy floors.
Typical paint shops requests in the area come from:
- Factories, farms and mines: metal primers and enamels for steel, plus floor paint for workshops
- Homeowners: a few tins tinted for a lounge or bedroom, with advice on the right primer
- Landlords and sellers: the same neutral colour kept on file for repaints between tenants
