What to know locally in Western Cape
Cape Town painters are busiest from late spring through summer, repainting homes in Pinelands, Rondebosch and Bellville and complexes in Durbanville and Century City. Waterproofing contractors fix flat roofs and parapets in Sea Point and along the Atlantic Seaboard before winter. Wine farms near Stellenbosch and Paarl hire painters who know how to treat old gables and lime plaster. In George and Knysna, exterior work is planned around the frequent rain and drying times.
Western Cape walls, roofs and weather
The Western Cape paints to a winter rainfall calendar. In Cape Town and the Boland, wet winters drive rain into cracked plaster and through flat roofs, and the summer south-easter dries paint fast and carries dust and salt. Housing ranges from Cape Dutch homesteads in Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek to Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Observatory, face brick homes in the northern suburbs, complexes and estates around Durbanville and Somerset West, and large township areas on the Cape Flats. On the Garden Route around George and Knysna, rain falls in most months and mould is common. Homeowners, body corporates, wine farms and holiday home owners all request painters.
The requests we see from Western Cape usually come from:
- Homeowners: a faded or mossy tile roof cleaned, repaired and recoated in a fresh colour
- Body corporates and estates: all the roofs in a complex recoated in one colour on one contract
- Landlords and sellers: a rental house roof repaired and recoated before leaks damage ceilings
