Here is the painting work our team does on Constantia houses, cottages and outbuildings.
High ceilings, large living areas, stairwells and studies painted neatly, with rooms done in a sensible order so you can keep living in the house.
Outside walls treated for mould and algae, damp-damaged plaster repaired and walls repainted, including timber shutters, fascias and window frames.
Tiled and sheeted roofs cleaned of moss and lichen that grow in Constantia's damp shade, then repaired where needed and recoated.
Flat roofs, parapets, balconies and the bases of walls sealed so the heavy winter rainfall in the valley stays out.
Constantia is one of the wettest residential areas in Cape Town, with rain clouds building against the mountains behind the valley through winter. Walls on the shady south side of a house, or under big trees, often stay damp for weeks. That is where green algae, black mould and blistering paint show up first, and simply painting over them only hides the problem for a season.
Many Constantia homes also have a lot of exterior timber: shutters, doors, window frames, pergolas and barge boards. Wood that is not sealed properly takes in moisture, swells and lifts the paint. Roofs in the shade grow moss and lichen that hold water against the tiles. Our approach starts with cleaning and treating these surfaces before any colour goes on.
We wash down and treat walls affected by mould and algae, repair damp-damaged plaster and allow surfaces to dry properly before priming.
Shutters, doors, frames and fascias are sanded back, filled and sealed or painted, so the wood stays protected through the wet months.
Big rooms, double-volume spaces and stairwells are painted using the right access equipment, with floors and furniture fully protected.
Outside painting in Constantia is best done between late spring and early autumn, when walls have had a chance to dry out after winter. If you want the exterior done before the rain returns, contact us early in the season, as the dry months fill up quickly and we will not paint walls that are still holding moisture.
Our team also does handyman services in Constantia, building and renovations in Constantia and fireplace, braai and chimney services.
