FIRE FLAMES SERVICES
These are the painting and waterproofing services our team offers in Hout Bay.
Walls, ceilings, doors and trims painted inside, including treating mould-prone rooms on the shady side of Hout Bay valley homes.
Outside walls washed to remove salt, repaired and primed before painting, so the new coat bonds well and resists the sea air.
Roofs cleaned of moss, lichen and leaf build-up common under Hout Bay's trees, then repaired where needed and painted.
Flat roofs, balconies with sea views, parapets and flashings sealed against driving winter rain.
Close to the beach and harbour, a fine layer of salt builds up on walls, window frames and metal railings. Painting straight over it leads to poor adhesion and early blistering, so washing down is a step we never skip here. The southeaster also drives sand and grit against exposed walls, which wears the finish over time.
Homes further into the valley and on the mountain slopes face a different problem. Big trees and shade keep walls damp for longer in winter, which encourages mould and algae on south-facing walls and roofs. Many houses are on steep sites with balconies and decks that catch the weather, and those surfaces need proper waterproofing beneath the paint.
We wash walls to remove salt and dirt, treat mould and algae, scrape loose paint and repair cracks before any coat goes on.
Interior rooms, exterior walls, fascias, window frames and steel railings are painted with coatings suited to the exposure, including rust treatment on metal first.
We clean and paint roofs and seal flat roofs, balconies and parapets, giving extra attention to the joints where water tends to get in.
Holiday homes and rentals in Hout Bay are busiest over summer, so the quieter months are the natural time to repaint inside, and late spring is a good window for the outside before guests arrive. Planning ahead means the work is done while the house is empty and the weather suits the job.
Our team also does handyman services in Hout Bay, building and renovations in Hout Bay and fireplace, braai and chimney services.

We treat the mould, repair any damaged plaster and repaint with suitable products. Improving ventilation and fixing leaks helps stop it coming back.
