Rooms, ceilings and woodwork repainted, with damp spots and mould treated first in the cooler, shadier rooms of Tokai homes.
Outside walls cleaned of algae and grime, cracks filled and primed, then painted to stand up to the wet winters below the mountain.
Roofs cleared of the moss and pine needles that collect near the forest, then repaired where needed and repainted.
Flat roofs, parapets, chimney flashings and garage roofs sealed to stop leaks during Tokai's long rainy spells.
Because Tokai lies against the slopes of the Constantiaberg, it gets noticeably more winter rain than suburbs closer to False Bay. Walls stay wet for longer, especially those facing south or shaded by large trees, and you often see green algae, mould and blistering paint where moisture has crept in behind it.
Much of Tokai is made up of established family homes on generous, leafy plots, alongside some newer estates. The trees and the nearby forest bring shade and plenty of leaves and needles, which clog gutters and hold moisture on roofs. Good exterior painting here starts with dealing with that moisture.
We clean off algae and mould, scrape back blistered paint, repair cracked or soft plaster and use the right primer on damp-affected areas before painting.
We paint walls, ceilings, doors, window frames, fascias and boundary walls, protecting floors, gardens and paving while we work.
We clean and paint tiled and metal roofs and waterproof flat sections, parapets and flashings, which are the usual sources of winter leaks.
Exterior painting and waterproofing in Tokai are best done in the drier months, from late spring through to early autumn. If your roof leaked last winter or the walls are flaking, book early, so the house is sealed before the first cold fronts arrive and indoor painting can follow when it gets wet outside.
Our team also does flooring and tiling in Tokai, building and renovations in Tokai and fireplace, braai and chimney services.
