Painting in Pretoria
Pretoria's painting work is shaped by its jacaranda suburbs, its government buildings and its weather. Arcadia, Brooklyn, Waterkloof and Lynnwood have face brick and plastered homes from the middle of last century, many with tiled roofs and steel window frames, while the city centre and Sunnyside have sandstone and face brick government buildings and older flats. Highveld hail is a real concern: summer storms crack roof tiles and damage roof coatings, and owners often repaint after insurance repairs. The sun is strong and dry winters are good for painting. Homeowners, landlords near the universities, body corporates in the east and public building managers all ask for painters.
Who asks for painters around Pretoria, most often first:
- 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
