Tzaneen notes on wall paint & coatings
In the humid Tzaneen valley, ask for exterior and bathroom paints with good mould and algae resistance, and avoid flat finishes in kitchens and bathrooms that stay wet. Light colours show mould less on shaded walls in Nkowankowa and town. Flat roofs and parapets need a waterproofing system before the summer rains, often a liquid coating with a fibre membrane. Breathable wood sealers suit timber in the mountains.
What gets painted in Tzaneen
Tzaneen sits in a green, subtropical valley below the Magoebaskloof mountains, and humidity is the biggest enemy of paint here. Summers are hot, wet and sticky, so mould, mildew and algae grow quickly on walls, ceilings and roofs, especially in shaded gardens and on south facing walls. Timber decks and window frames rot if they are not sealed. Homes in town, farmhouses and packhouses on the citrus, avocado, mango and banana farms around Letsitele, and holiday homes in Haenertsburg all need regular attention. Farm managers, homeowners, lodge owners, landlords and schools ask for painters, waterproofing and mould resistant paint most, usually before the summer rains arrive.

Typical wall paint requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a fresh coat for the lounge, bedrooms and passages, often in washable low sheen
- Factories, farms and mines: bright, washable walls in workshops, canteens, offices and ablution blocks on site
- Shops, offices and restaurants: scrubbable walls in shops, offices and restaurants that take daily knocks and wiping
