KwaZulu-Natal notes on painting services
Durban painters spend much of their time on complexes in Umhlanga, Musgrave and Westville, where trustees phase exterior repaints and flat roof waterproofing. Holiday homes in Ballito, Salt Rock and on the South Coast near Margate are often painted in winter, when the weather is drier. In Pietermaritzburg, contractors repaint older brick and timber homes in Scottsville and Clarendon. Factories in Pinetown, Jacobs and Richards Bay hire commercial painting contractors for steel, floors and large roofs.
What gets painted in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal is the province where mould is the first thing a painter checks. Along the coast from Port Shepstone through Durban to Ballito and Richards Bay, humid air, warm nights and salt spray feed black mould on south walls, rust on burglar bars and gutters and peeling on cheap exterior paint. Plastered homes, sectional title complexes in Umhlanga and on the Berea, older timber and tin homes and new North Coast estates all need a thorough wash first. Inland, Pietermaritzburg has Victorian red brick buildings and misty winters, and the Midlands and northern areas around Newcastle see frost and storms. Homeowners, body corporates, holiday home owners and factories all ask for painters.
The requests we see from KwaZulu-Natal usually come from:
- Homeowners: a bedroom or lounge repainted, or the whole house inside and out before it starts to peel
- Body corporates and estates: a complex repaint with a scope of work, trustees' approval and a written guarantee
- Landlords and sellers: a quick, durable repaint between tenants or before a house goes on the market
Local tips for KwaZulu-Natal
Most asked for in KwaZulu-Natal: mould treatment and exterior repaints, complex repaints and flat roof waterproofing. Where painters and paint shops work from: pinetown, Springfield Park, Umhlanga Ridge, Pietermaritzburg and Richards Bay. A useful tip: ask for a fungicidal wash and a mould resistant exterior coat on every coastal wall.
Requests range widely: from one room to a whole complex. Here, homeowners lead the requests, typically for a bedroom, lounge or the whole house repainted with the prep done properly. One local point to raise: mould on Durban south walls, salt rust on the Bluff and in Richards Bay, old brick.
