What to know locally in Upington
White and light colours are common in Upington, and a heat reflective roof coating can help keep homes and sheds cooler. Ask for a UV resistant exterior acrylic and, on cracked plaster, a flexible or textured coating. Dark colours on walls facing west fade and heat up fast. Near the irrigated land along the Orange River at Kakamas, check for damp at the base of walls first.
Painting in Upington
Upington lies on the Orange River on the edge of the Kalahari, and it is one of the hottest places in the country, with fierce sun almost every day. That heat and UV are hard on paint: dark colours fade, walls crack, and roof paint chalks quickly. Many buildings are plastered and painted in light colours to reflect the sun. Along the river, green vineyards and date farms around Kanoneiland, Keimoes and Kakamas bring work on cellars, packhouses, farm sheds and worker homes. In town, houses, shops, government buildings and lodges need regular repainting. Farm managers, homeowners, lodge owners and builders ask for painters, roof paint and cool, light coatings most.
Typical waterproof paint requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: sealing parapets, a leaking flat stoep roof or cracked outside walls before winter rain
- Factories, farms and mines: coating box gutters, concrete roofs and tank stands on factories and farms
- Shops, offices and restaurants: sealing flat roofs and box gutters over shops, offices and restaurants
