Interior painting
Walls, ceilings, cornices, skirtings, doors and frames. Occupied homes handled room by room so you are never living in a building site.
Interior and exterior painting, wall and floor tiling, and the preparation work that decides whether either of them lasts five years or fifteen.
Most paint failures on South African houses are not paint failures at all. They are preparation failures that took two years to become visible.
Flaking on a north facing wall, bubbling above a damp course, hairline cracks that reopen a season later, and paint lifting off a parapet all trace back to the same thing: someone rolled new paint over a surface that was not ready for it.
We would rather spend an extra day scraping, filling, sealing and priming than come back in eighteen months to explain why a two coat exterior job is peeling. If a wall needs a crack repair, a damp problem investigated or a plaster patch before it is painted, we will tell you upfront and price it, even where that makes our quote look higher than the next one.
Walls, ceilings, cornices, skirtings, doors and frames. Occupied homes handled room by room so you are never living in a building site.
Plaster, face brick sealing, parapets, garden walls, fascia and barge boards, gutters and downpipes, steel gates and burglar bars.
Cutting out and filling structural hairline cracks, plaster patching, sealing and priming, and treating the surface properly before any topcoat.
Sealing around parapets, flashings and window reveals as part of an exterior repaint, so the new paint is not the only thing keeping water out.
Bathrooms, kitchens, patios and entrances. Correct adhesives, proper substrate preparation, level setting out and clean grout lines.
Replacing cracked or drummy tiles, raking out and regrouting tired bathrooms, and resealing wet area junctions.
Painting and tiling cannot honestly be priced off a website. Wall area, surface condition, access, the number of colours and the amount of preparation required all move the number, and so does what is behind the paint that is already there.
WhatsApp us photographs of the rooms or the elevations, and tell us roughly what you have in mind.
For anything beyond a single room we come to site. Photographs do not show damp, drummy plaster or a wall that is out of true.
An itemised quote setting out preparation, products, coats and the areas covered, so you can compare it properly against anyone else’s.
A start date, a realistic finish date and an agreed payment structure before anyone opens a tin.
Send us photographs of what you have in mind and we will arrange a site visit and a written quotation.
