Tools & supplies in George: local notes
Paint shops in George town and the industrial area stock mould wash, wood sealers, deck oils and enamels as well as wall and roof paint, since timber work is so common here. Contractors buy sandpaper, scrapers and quality synthetic brushes for timber in bulk. Pressure washers for cleaning walls and roofs can be hired locally. Larger orders of membranes or spray equipment sometimes come in from Mossel Bay or further.
What gets painted in George
George lies below the Outeniqua Mountains on the Garden Route, where rain can fall in any season and the air stays humid. That makes mildew, green algae on south walls and rotting timber the main painting problems here. Many homes have timber decks, fascias, window frames and cladding that need regular sealing or enamel, and holiday houses in Wilderness and Herold's Bay face salt air off the sea. In town there are older plastered houses, newer estates such as those around Blanco and the golf estates, and growing suburbs in Thembalethu and Pacaltsdorp. Homeowners, retirees, holiday home owners and estate managers ask for painters, waterproofing and roof painting most.
The requests we see from George usually come from:
- Homeowners: fibre membrane and liquid coats on a leaking flat roof over a lounge
- Body corporates and estates: torch-on rolls for the flat roofs and parapets of a block of units
- Landlords and sellers: waterproofing tape on cracks and flashings before the rains in a rental
