Newlands Factors That Affect the Work
- Newlands is an established suburb of older freestanding homes, where plaster, damp and steelwork repairs often come before paint.
- Older plaster and failed damp-proof courses often need repairs before paint goes on.
- Steel window frames and burglar bars with many layers of old paint take longer to prepare.
- Homes built before the 1970s may have lead-based paint on doors and trims. Ask how sanding dust will be controlled.
- Mature trees drop leaves into gutters and valleys, which leads to roof and parapet leaks.
- Strong Highveld sun fades north- and west-facing walls, roofs and varnish first. Ask which product each contractor quotes for exposed surfaces.

Do I need to replaster before painting?
Only where plaster is loose, hollow or salt-damaged. Sound plaster just needs cleaning, filling and priming.
Can old steel window frames be repainted?
Yes, if the steel is sound. Loose paint and rust are removed, bare steel is primed with a rust-inhibiting primer and two topcoats go on. Badly corroded frames may need repair first.
Why does paint bubble at the bottom of my walls?
Often rising damp or a bridged damp-proof course. Painting over it will fail, so ask contractors to find the cause first.
Do contractors cover Newlands?
Availability depends on the job, the season and how busy contractors are. Give your suburb and street area in the request so contractors who work in Newlands can reply.
Will a contractor need to see the job?
Small jobs can often be priced from photos and measurements. Roofs, waterproofing, damp and larger jobs usually need a site visit before a firm price.
