Tools & supplies in Limpopo: local notes
Polokwane is the main supply centre, with paint shops and builders' suppliers in its industrial area and along the main business streets, and Tzaneen, Mokopane and Thohoyandou have their own stockists. Lodges near Hoedspruit and Phalaborwa often order primers, enamel for timber and steel, and waterproofing membranes from Polokwane or Tzaneen. Check stock of specialised items such as epoxy floor paint before you start, as shops in smaller towns may need to order them in.
Painting in Limpopo
Limpopo is hot for much of the year, and that heat shapes most painting jobs. Polokwane and Mokopane sit on a drier plateau with sharp winter mornings, while Tzaneen, Thohoyandou and the Letaba valley are humid and green, with heavy summer rain and mould on shaded walls. Lephalale has power station housing and newer suburbs, and Phalaborwa and Hoedspruit mix mine homes, game lodges and thatch. Many homes are plastered and painted in warm colours, while in rural villages new block houses often wait for their first coat. Farmers with packhouses, schools and churches, lodge owners and homeowners all ask for painters and paint.
