Tools & supplies in Stellenbosch: local notes
Paint shops in central Stellenbosch, Technopark and nearby Somerset West stock wall paint, enamels for shutters, wood primers and the brushes and rollers that contractors use. Landlords with several student houses often keep a set colour and buy 20 litre tins in bulk. Supplies for heritage work, like lime products and oil based wood finishes, may need ordering. Ask the shop to keep your colour formula on file.
Stellenbosch walls, roofs and weather
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.
The requests we see from Stellenbosch usually come from:
- Landlords and sellers: filler, sugar soap and mould wash to clean up a unit between tenants
- Homeowners: tape, drop sheets and filler to prepare a bedroom before repainting
- Shops, offices and restaurants: plastic sheeting and tape to protect stock and fittings during a weekend repaint
