FIRE FLAMES SERVICES
Painting in Bloubergstrand means working with full sea exposure and, often, multi-storey buildings. These are the painting services our team offers here.
Open-plan living areas, bedrooms and ceilings painted cleanly, a popular job for Bloubergstrand owners refreshing a home or holiday apartment between seasons.
Sea-facing walls washed to remove salt and sand, cracks and blistered patches repaired, then primed and painted with coatings made for exposed coastal walls.
Roofs cleaned of salt and grime, rust on sheeting and flashings treated and loose tiles fixed before painting, to slow the damage sea air causes.
Flat roofs, roof terraces, balconies and parapets sealed, which matters on Bloubergstrand homes built for views, where wind-driven rain hits open terraces head-on.
Bloubergstrand is one of the most exposed parts of the Cape Town coast. The south-easter whips sand off the beach in summer, and winter cold fronts drive rain straight at the sea-facing side of buildings. Salt dries on walls and frames, and over time it lifts paint, causes blistering and stains, and corrodes metal balustrades and window frames.
Many homes and apartment blocks here are built with flat roofs, roof terraces and large balconies to take in the view across Table Bay. These areas collect water and are common sources of leaks. Multi-storey apartment blocks need scaffolding or rope access and planning with the body corporate before any outside painting can begin.
We wash walls to remove salt and sand, scrape blistered and loose paint, fill cracks and prime properly, since paint over salt residue will not hold.
We paint interiors and exteriors, and treat and paint steel balustrades, gates and burglar bars where rust has started, so they are protected again.
We clean and paint roofs and waterproof flat roofs, terraces, balconies and parapets, sealing joins and edges where water usually gets in.
For apartment blocks, outside painting and waterproofing are usually body corporate decisions. Trustees and managing agents can send us photos and building details, and we will quote the job in sections, plan scaffolding and timing, and keep residents informed so the work runs with as little disruption as possible.
Our team also does handyman services in Bloubergstrand, building and renovations in Bloubergstrand and fireplace, braai and chimney services.
You get a written quote before any work starts. See our main painting services Cape Town page for the full range of painting we do.
Send us photos of your walls, balconies or roof and say which street or building in Bloubergstrand they are in. We will reply with a written quote, often the same day.
