Wall paint & coatings in Mahikeng: local notes
Strong sun in Mahikeng and Mmabatho fades dark colours, so many owners choose warm light shades and a UV resistant exterior acrylic. Textured paint is popular on new plaster in Lomanyaneng because it hides small cracks and trowel marks. For flat roofs on offices and homes, a waterproof roof coating with a fibre membrane is common, laid with falls to the drains. Ask for paint prices per tin and per m².
Mahikeng walls, roofs and weather
Mahikeng is the capital of the North West, and a good share of painting work here comes from government buildings, offices, schools, clinics and the university campus in Mmabatho. Around them are older town houses near the historic centre, 1980s homes and flats in Mmabatho, and growing areas of RDP houses and self built homes in Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng. The climate is hot and dry for much of the year, with strong sun that fades colour and dries paint fast, and summer thunderstorms with some hail. Dust settles on walls and roofs. Government departments, contractors on public tenders, landlords and families extending their homes ask for painters and paint most.
Typical wall paint requests in the area come from:
- Schools, churches and public buildings: hard-wearing washable paint for classrooms, passages, halls and clinic walls
- Homeowners: a fresh coat for the lounge, bedrooms and passages, often in washable low sheen
- Builders and developers: primer and two coats on new plaster, ordered per house or per phase
