Welkom notes on painting services
Many painting jobs in Welkom are former mine houses in Riebeeckstad, Bedelia and Odendaalsrus that have been sold or rented out and need a full refresh. Painters usually wash walls and roofs to remove dust first, then fix cracks and repaint. Landlords with several houses in Thabong and Virginia often want one contractor for all of them. Mine and industrial sites ask for steel coatings and floor paint.
Painting in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold mining town, built in the decades after gold was found in the area, and much of its housing was put up for mine staff: rows of similar face brick and plastered houses with tiled or corrugated roofs, mine hostels and flats. As some mines have closed, many of these homes have passed to new owners and landlords who want them repainted and repaired. Red dust from mine dumps settles on walls and roofs, and the Highveld brings summer hail and frosty winters. Landlords, homeowners buying former mine houses, businesses in the CBD, schools and remaining mine operations ask for painters, roof paint and supplies most.

The requests we see from Welkom usually come from:
- Homeowners: big textured ceilings, long boundary walls or an empty house sprayed quickly
- Landlords and sellers: an empty flat or house sprayed between tenants to keep downtime short
- Factories, farms and mines: warehouse walls, steel trusses and roof sheeting sprayed in one pass
