Why Property Owners Choose Painters Cape Town in Stellenbosch
Our Stellenbosch work is supported by documented local projects, major paint-supplier approval, experienced employed painters, written diagnostic reports and a broader track record across Cape Winelands homes, estates and wine properties.
27 Years of Painting Experience
Painters Cape Town has 27 years of painting-contractor experience across residential, estate, wine-farm, roof and commercial properties in Cape Town and the Cape Winelands.
Approved by Major Paint Suppliers
We are approved by major paint suppliers and can work to formal supplier specifications where the substrate, coating condition or project requirements justify technical involvement.
Supplier-Backed Warranties
Qualifying new-build raw-plaster projects can receive supplier-backed specifications of up to 10 years when the complete system is followed from the first primer coat. Redecoration projects are typically 7–8 years, depending on the supplier and written specification.
Documented Stellenbosch Projects
Our Stellenbosch page is supported by four real 2026 projects at De Zalze Estate, Rozendal Farm, Nuutgevonden Estate and Paradyskloof, covering exterior, roof, moisture-related and preparation-intensive work.
Cape Winelands Wine-Property Experience
Our wider Cape Winelands project history includes work at Cavalli Estate, Simonsig Wine Estate, Roozendal Wine Farm, Boschkloof Wines, Guardian Peak Winery & Grill, Klein Welmoed Wine & Olive Estate and Vredenheim Wine Estate.
Full-Time Employed Painters
Our painters are employed by the company rather than supplied as subcontracted crews, giving us direct responsibility for workmanship, site conduct, preparation and quality control.
Security Screening Where Required
Where estates, wine farms or controlled properties require additional access screening, our employed painters can undergo the applicable police or security-clearance procedures.
Written Diagnostic Reports
Our quotations identify visible paint failure, damp symptoms, cracks, waterproofing requirements, timber or roof defects, preparation methods, coating systems and important limitations before work starts.
Working-Foreman Supervision
An experienced working foreman supervises preparation, painters, property protection, access, workmanship and daily site organisation throughout the project.
Direct Contractor Accountability
Painters Cape Town is not a lead-generation company. Clients deal directly with the painting contractor responsible for inspection, quotation, preparation, employed painters, supervision and handover.
Public Liability Insurance
Our work is supported by Public Liability Insurance through OUTsurance for additional reassurance when we work on private homes, estates and commercial properties.
Preparation Before Paint
Premium paint cannot compensate for unresolved damp, unstable coatings, rust, open joints, failed waterproofing or poorly prepared timber. We address the substrate before relying on the finishing coats.
Preparation-First Painting Contractors in Stellenbosch
Painters Cape Town provides professional painting services throughout Stellenbosch for private homes, estates, older properties, wine farms, guest accommodation, restaurants, student rentals, roofs, commercial buildings and managed residential properties.
Stellenbosch is one of the most varied painting environments in the Western Cape. The same town combines historic buildings and older plaster, large university-linked rental areas, premium residential estates, modern family homes, wine farms, hospitality properties and substantial tiled and metal roofs.
These properties should not all receive the same preparation or coating specification.
A heritage-style home near central Stellenbosch may contain ageing plaster, timber windows and several generations of paint. A De Zalze home may require estate colour compliance and careful protection of landscaping. A wine-farm guest property may require exterior plaster, timber and roof work to be coordinated around guests. A student rental may need durable washable interior finishes and fast turnaround. A Paradyskloof home may combine roof coating, waterproofing, hollow-plaster repairs, damp-related preparation and varnished timber within one project.
With 27 years of painting and surface-preparation experience, we approach the property as a maintenance system rather than treating painting as colour application alone.
Every quotation includes written diagnostic observations and a clear scope of work. Where useful, moisture readings, supplier specifications and project-specific remedial preparation are incorporated into the proposed system.
Our Stellenbosch page is supported by four genuine 2026 projects rather than generic statements that we work in the area.
The projects cover four different property environments and include measured Protimeter readings, original photographs, detailed surface findings, project-specific preparation and different coating systems.
De Zalze Winelands Golf Estate
Completed De Zalze exterior after damp-related preparation, crack repairs, waterproofing and repainting.
Project period: 23 February–6 March 2026 Protimeter readings: 16.3%–21.5% Property: Private double-storey estate home
The De Zalze project involved peeling and powdery exterior coatings, numerous cracks, failed seals, moisture-related deterioration, vulnerable windowsills and deck-wall surfaces, wooden fascia boards and mould-affected Nutec soffits.
Preparation included surface stabilisation, moisture-related treatment, defect-specific crack repairs, flexible joint sealing and waterproofing of exposed horizontal masonry.
Nuutgevonden Estate exterior after chalky-surface stabilisation, crack repairs, moisture preparation and repainting.
Project period: 13–23 July 2026 Protimeter readings: 8.9%–14.2% Property: Private estate home
The project included severe chalking, peeling coatings, fine and wider cracks, movement-joint deterioration, exposed windowsills, boundary-wall copings and moisture-sensitive boundary walls.
The main building and boundary walls received different specified finishing systems because their exposure and moisture conditions differed.
The four projects provide a much broader picture of Stellenbosch painting than one generic portfolio photograph could.
De Zalze: premium estate exterior painting, measured moisture, crack classification, failed seals, horizontal waterproofing, timber and Nutec.
Rozendal Farm: wine-farm hospitality painting, plaster repairs, sash windows, exterior timber and corrugated metal roof coating.
Nuutgevonden Estate: severe chalking, estate-home repainting, boundary-wall limitations and different coating systems for different wall types.
Paradyskloof: tiled-roof painting, hollow plaster, re-waterproofing, moisture-related preparation, fascia painting and varnished timber.
Together they document moisture readings ranging from below 10% to above 22%, different roof substrates, different building types and a wide range of genuine coating failures and remedial methods.
This is the practical evidence behind our Stellenbosch painting service.
Why Painting in Stellenbosch Is Different
Historic Buildings and Older Plaster
Stellenbosch Municipality identifies the historic town centre with its well-preserved Cape Dutch buildings and oak-lined streets as an important part of Stellenbosch’s heritage.
Older properties can contain ageing plaster, previous patch repairs, several coating generations, timber windows and doors, shaded passages and moisture-sensitive surfaces.
Age alone does not determine the correct coating system. The existing plaster and previous paint need to be physically assessed for soundness, porosity, chalking and adhesion before new material is specified.
Wet Winters and Strong Summer Exposure
Stellenbosch experiences a Mediterranean-type seasonal pattern with wetter winters and warmer, drier summers.
Winter rain can expose weaknesses around cracks, parapets, windowsills, roof-to-wall junctions, expansion joints and failed perimeter seals.
Shaded garden-facing walls may dry more slowly and support mould or algae, while sun-exposed elevations and roofs can experience fading and surface chalking.
The De Zalze, Nuutgevonden and Paradyskloof projects all provide real examples of these maintenance issues.
University and Rental Properties
Stellenbosch is also a major university town. University-linked houses, apartments and shared rentals often require practical repainting between tenancies and durable finishes in high-use bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, passages and communal areas.
Rental painting can therefore require a different balance of preparation, washability, drying time, scheduling and long-term maintenance from a premium owner-occupied estate home.
Wine Farms, Guesthouses and Restaurants
Stellenbosch’s wine-farm and hospitality properties can combine accommodation, restaurants, tasting areas, farm buildings, plastered exteriors, timber, roofs, courtyards, gardens and visitor access.
Painting these buildings requires good preparation but also sensible scheduling around guests, bookings, events, public access, signage, entrances and operating hours.
Our documented Rozendal Farm project is a practical example of this type of Stellenbosch work.
Estate Homes and Controlled Developments
Estate work can involve contractor access requirements, approved exterior colours, vehicle procedures, working hours and careful protection of landscaping, paving and neighbouring property.
For example, the published De Zalze architectural guidelines contain specific requirements for exterior wall colours, timber windows and doors, garage doors, roofs, fascias, gutters and other exterior finishes.
Estate requirements should therefore be confirmed before a colour or coating change is undertaken rather than assuming every exterior finish can be altered freely.
Painting Contractors Stellenbosch — What a Proper Quotation Should Include
When comparing painting contractors in Stellenbosch, the price alone does not explain what will actually happen to a deteriorated coating.
A useful painting quotation should make the preparation visible.
Depending on the property, our written quotation can record:
condition of existing paint;
chalking or powdery coatings;
loose or flaking paint;
hairline, map and wider plaster cracks;
movement and expansion joints;
moisture-related symptoms;
Protimeter readings where appropriate;
failed window and door seals;
parapet and windowsill waterproofing;
hollow or detached plaster;
mould and algae;
timber deterioration;
rust and metalwork preparation;
roof condition and substrate;
boundary-wall limitations;
proposed primers and coating systems;
property protection;
important exclusions and maintenance limitations.
This makes it easier for the property owner to compare the actual scope instead of comparing two prices that may include completely different levels of preparation.
Roof Painters Stellenbosch — Two Real Roof Substrates
Roof painting is particularly important for this page because we now have two documented Stellenbosch roof projects rather than only stating that we offer the service.
Corrugated Roof Painting at Rozendal Farm
At Rozendal Farm, biological growth and chalking were removed from the corrugated roof sheets before the specified HydroEtch preparation and two coats of Dulux Roofguard.
The preparation was appropriate to the metal roof substrate and formed part of a wider exterior and hospitality maintenance project.
The Paradyskloof roof presented different conditions. The tiles were heavily affected by mould and were chalky before repainting.
The roof was cleaned and treated for fungal contamination before a full coat of Dulux Bonding Liquid was specified to stabilise the chalky substrate. The prepared tiles then received two coats of charcoal Dulux Roofguard.
Our Roof Painters Cape Town service covers suitable tiled, cement-tile, concrete, IBR and Chromadek surfaces where the roof condition and access are appropriate for coating.
Roof coating protects and refreshes a suitable prepared substrate. It does not replace repairs to broken tiles, defective flashings, failed roof penetrations, drainage problems or active waterproofing defects.
Those defects should be repaired before the coating system is relied upon.
Interior Painters Stellenbosch
Our Interior Painters Cape Town service covers family homes, estate properties, older houses, apartments, student rentals, guest accommodation, restaurants, offices and common areas.
Interior preparation can include:
walls and ceilings;
cornices;
plaster cracks;
historic water stains;
localised damp-related coating failure;
mould-affected bathroom ceilings after the moisture issue has been addressed;
doors and frames;
skirting;
painted cupboards and joinery;
timber ceilings and trims.
Occupied homes and hospitality properties also require careful protection of furniture, floors, glazing, cupboards, tiles and completed finishes.
Exterior House Painters Stellenbosch
Our Exterior Painters Cape Town service covers plastered façades, estate homes, older buildings, wine-farm properties, guest accommodation, boundary walls, fascia boards, windows, doors, gates, garage doors and suitable metalwork.
Exterior preparation may include:
pressure or manual cleaning;
removal of loose coating;
chalking treatment or stabilisation;
fungal treatment;
crack repairs matched to crack width;
hollow-plaster repairs;
flexible joint sealing;
window and door perimeter sealing;
waterproofing of parapets and windowsills;
timber sanding and priming;
rust preparation and compatible metal primers;
damp-related preparation where appropriate.
Our four Stellenbosch project pages demonstrate these preparation methods on actual properties.
Damp Proofing and Waterproofing Before Painting
Our Damp Proofing Cape Town service is relevant where moisture contributes to coating failure.
Common Stellenbosch moisture-entry areas can include:
parapets;
windowsills;
failed window and door seals;
expansion joints;
roof-to-wall junctions;
balconies and deck walls;
boundary and garden walls;
retaining or backfilled walls;
irrigated garden areas;
historic plumbing or roof leaks.
A moisture reading helps assess the substrate but does not automatically identify the source.
Paint does not fix active damp. Active plumbing, drainage, roof, structural or waterproofing defects require appropriate repair before a decorative coating can be expected to perform normally.
Boundary Walls and Ground Moisture
Boundary walls deserve separate consideration from the main house because freestanding masonry can be exposed to soil, irrigation, planted beds, rain through the top and moisture entering from the opposite side.
Painting the accessible face cannot create a missing damp-proof barrier or permanently stop water that continues entering from behind or below.
Our Nuutgevonden and Paradyskloof project documentation both demonstrate why realistic limitations are necessary for certain ground-contact or backfilled walls.
Timber Windows, Doors, Fascias and Pergolas
Stellenbosch properties commonly contain substantial exterior timber, ranging from traditional sash windows and doors to pergolas, fascia boards, garage doors and decorative joinery.
Timber preparation can include removing loose coating, sanding, feathering hard edges, priming bare timber and applying a compatible painted or varnished finish.
Painted timber and previously varnished timber should not automatically receive the same coating system.
Our De Zalze, Rozendal and Paradyskloof projects all include genuine timber-preparation examples.
Heritage-Style and Older Stellenbosch Properties
Older Stellenbosch buildings require a cautious approach because the visible paint layer may hide several generations of coating, old plaster repairs and varying substrate conditions.
Before repainting, we consider:
whether the existing coating is firmly bonded;
whether plaster is sound or hollow;
whether old repairs are stable;
whether moisture is affecting the substrate;
whether timber joints and end grain require attention;
whether modern coatings are compatible with the existing surface;
whether heritage or owner-association approval may apply to proposed changes.
The purpose is not to label every old building as fragile, but to avoid treating historic or older surfaces as if they were new plaster.
Wine-Farm and Hospitality Painting in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is one of South Africa’s best-known wine and visitor destinations, creating an important maintenance market for wine farms, guesthouses, restaurants, cottages, farmhouses, tasting facilities and other hospitality properties.
Our Commercial Painters Cape Town service can be adapted for suitable hospitality properties where work needs to be phased around guests, staff, entrances, parking, deliveries or operating hours.
Rozendal Farm provides genuine first-hand evidence of this work: its exterior project combined plaster, roof sheets, sash windows, fascia boards, pergola timber, waterproofing and moisture-related preparation within an active guest-accommodation environment.
Student Accommodation and Rental Painting
University-linked rentals can experience heavy everyday wear and frequent occupancy changes.
Common maintenance requirements include:
scuffed and marked walls;
damaged corners;
holes from wall fixtures;
bathroom mould after ventilation or moisture problems are corrected;
ceiling staining;
damaged doors and frames;
worn skirting;
kitchen and communal-area repainting.
Durable, washable finishes and sensible project scheduling are often more important in these properties than highly specialised decorative finishes.
Properties around central Stellenbosch and the university environment include older houses, apartments, student accommodation, guesthouses, offices, restaurants and mixed-use buildings.
Older plaster, timber details, multiple paint layers, rental wear, shaded passages and limited access can all influence preparation and scheduling.
De Zalze, Welgevonden and Nuutgevonden Estate
These estate environments include private homes, prominent façades, visible rooflines, garages, boundary features, glazing and landscaped gardens.
Estate work may require controlled access, colour compliance and careful daily site management.
Our documented De Zalze and Nuutgevonden projects provide first-hand evidence of completed work in two very different Stellenbosch estate environments.
Dalsig, Mostertsdrift, Brandwacht and Paradyskloof
These established residential areas include substantial homes, mature gardens, timber, retaining features, prominent roofs and both older and newer exterior coating systems.
Shaded elevations can remain wet for longer during winter, while sunny walls and roofs experience strong UV exposure and chalking.
Our documented Paradyskloof roof and exterior project provides direct local evidence from this residential part of Stellenbosch.
Jonkershoek, Rozendal, Devonvale and Wine-Farm Areas
This broader Stellenbosch landscape includes family homes, farms, guest accommodation, visitor-facing buildings and hospitality properties.
One project can require exterior plaster, roofs, timber, cracks, moisture preparation and operational scheduling to be coordinated under one scope.
Rozendal Farm provides a documented example in the Jonkershoek-facing part of Stellenbosch.
Common Stellenbosch Paint Failures — Cause Before Coating
Visible problem
Factors to investigate
Preparation principle
Fading or powdery chalk
UV exposure, ageing coating, weak paint or alkali-related deterioration.
Clean thoroughly and stabilise the remaining suitable friable surface where specified.
Blistering or peeling
Poor adhesion, moisture, contamination, weak previous coatings or incompatibility.
Remove unstable material, investigate the cause and prepare the exposed substrate correctly.
Hairline or map cracking
Surface movement, ageing plaster or fine coating/plaster defects.
Use suitable flexible preparation where appropriate instead of only covering the crack.
Wider plaster cracks
Plaster failure, movement or deeper substrate defects.
Open and repair suitable cracks according to their width; refer suspected structural movement where necessary.
Hollow plaster
Loss of bond between plaster and underlying masonry.
Remove detached plaster to sound material, bond and replaster before priming and painting.
Mould or algae
Shade, slow drying, vegetation, condensation or persistent moisture.
Address moisture factors where possible and treat biological growth before coating.
Boundary-wall bubbling
Soil, irrigation, planted beds, missing damp-proof separation or poor drainage.
Address the source where possible or record realistic coating limitations.
Parapet or windowsill failure
Cracks or deteriorated waterproofing on upward-facing masonry.
Repair cracks and renew appropriate horizontal waterproof protection before repainting adjoining walls.
Roof coating chalking
Age, UV exposure, previous coating breakdown or unsuitable preparation.
Clean and prepare according to the roof substrate; stabilise or prime where specified before roof coating.
Timber coating failure
UV, moisture, failed joints, exposed grain and deferred maintenance.
Remove loose material, sand, prime exposed timber and apply a compatible painted or varnished finish.
Rust returning through paint
Active corrosion under a failed or unsuitable coating.
Remove or treat corrosion and prime exposed steel before compatible topcoating.
Our Preparation-First Stellenbosch Painting Process
1. Physical Site Inspection
We inspect the surfaces, existing coatings, cracks, moisture symptoms, roofs, timber, metalwork, boundary walls, access and protection requirements.
2. Diagnostic Assessment
Visible paint failure is considered together with the construction and exposure of the property so that the proposed remedy addresses likely causes rather than only symptoms.
3. Written Diagnostic Report
The quotation records relevant observations, preparation requirements and important limitations.
4. Clear Written Scope or Specification
Repairs, primers, coatings, waterproofing, protection, exclusions and other agreed work are documented before the project starts.
5. Property Protection and Access Planning
Floors, furniture, glazing, paving, gardens, roofs, entrances, signs and other completed finishes are protected as applicable. Estate and hospitality access requirements are incorporated where necessary.
6. Surface Preparation
Preparation may include washing, scraping, sanding, biological treatment, chalk stabilisation, crack repairs, replastering, flexible sealing, waterproofing, timber preparation, rust treatment and moisture-related work.
7. Coating Application
Compatible primers and finishing systems are applied to the prepared substrate according to the written scope and current product instructions.
8. Working-Foreman Supervision
A working foreman supervises preparation, protection, workmanship, communication and site order.
9. Final Inspection and Handover
Completed areas are checked against the agreed scope and relevant future maintenance considerations are explained.

Whether your project involves a private home, De Zalze or another estate, wine farm, guesthouse, restaurant, student rental, roof, heritage-style property, commercial building, boundary wall, exterior timber or moisture-related coating failure, we can inspect the surfaces and prepare a written quotation.
Stellenbosch combines older and heritage-style buildings, university rentals, premium estates, wine farms, guest accommodation, strong summer UV and wet winter conditions. Different property types and substrates therefore require different preparation and coating systems.
Do you have real painting projects in Stellenbosch?
Yes. Our Stellenbosch page is supported by four documented 2026 projects in De Zalze Winelands Golf Estate, at Rozendal Farm, in Nuutgevonden Estate and in Paradyskloof.
Have you completed painting work in De Zalze?
Yes. Our documented De Zalze project involved a private double-storey estate home with exterior coating failure, moisture-related preparation, crack repairs, failed seals, waterproofing, timber fascia boards and Nutec soffits.
What moisture readings were recorded at De Zalze?
Protimeter readings across assessed exterior areas ranged from 16.3% to 21.5%.
Have you painted at Rozendal Farm?
Yes. The documented Rozendal Farm project involved exterior plaster, sash windows, fascia boards, pergola timber, waterproofing and corrugated roof-sheet preparation and painting.
What moisture readings were recorded at Rozendal Farm?
Protimeter readings across assessed areas ranged from 11.3% to 22.8%.
Did the Rozendal Farm project include roof painting?
Yes. The corrugated roof sheets were cleaned and prepared before the specified HydroEtch preparation and two coats of Dulux Roofguard.
Have you completed work in Nuutgevonden Estate?
Yes. The documented Nuutgevonden Estate project included the exterior main building and boundary walls, with chalking treatment, crack repairs, waterproofing and moisture-related preparation.
What moisture readings were recorded at Nuutgevonden Estate?
Protimeter readings across assessed areas ranged from 8.9% to 14.2%.
Do you have a project in Paradyskloof?
Yes. Our documented Paradyskloof project combined a tiled-roof repaint with exterior wall preparation, hollow-plaster repairs, waterproofing, flexible sealing, fascia-board painting and varnished timber maintenance.
What moisture readings were recorded at the Paradyskloof project?
Protimeter readings across assessed exterior masonry ranged from 10.4% to 15.6%.
Did the Paradyskloof project include roof painting?
Yes. The mould-affected and chalky tiled roof was cleaned and treated before Dulux Bonding Liquid and two coats of charcoal Dulux Roofguard were specified.
Do you paint tiled roofs in Stellenbosch?
Yes. We paint suitable tiled roofs where the substrate condition and access are appropriate for cleaning, preparation and coating.
Do you paint metal roofs in Stellenbosch?
Yes. Suitable IBR, Chromadek and other compatible metal roof surfaces can be prepared and coated. Our Rozendal Farm project documents a corrugated metal roof system.
Does roof painting repair active leaks?
No. Roof coating protects a suitable prepared roof surface but does not replace repairs to broken tiles, failed flashings, roof penetrations, drainage defects or active leaks.
Do you paint heritage-style homes in Stellenbosch?
Yes. Older and heritage-style properties can require careful assessment of old plaster, existing coatings, timber, previous repairs, moisture and adhesion before repainting.
How do you approach older plaster?
Older plaster is checked for soundness, hollow areas, cracks, previous repairs, moisture, chalking and coating adhesion. Preparation is then matched to the condition rather than assuming all old plaster requires the same treatment.
Do you paint student rentals and university-area properties?
Yes. We paint student rentals, apartments and university-area properties, including walls, ceilings, bathrooms, kitchens, doors, frames and other high-use interior surfaces.
Do you paint wine farms, guesthouses and restaurants?
Yes. Suitable wine-farm and hospitality projects can include interiors, exteriors, roofs, timber and visitor-facing areas, with work phased around guests, staff and operating requirements where practical.
Are there special painting requirements in De Zalze?
De Zalze has published architectural requirements covering exterior colours and finishes for walls, timber, windows, doors, roofs and other exterior elements. Applicable estate requirements should be confirmed before work starts.
Do you paint body corporate and estate properties?
Yes. We undertake suitable estate, townhouse, sectional-title and body corporate painting with access planning, colour coordination, resident communication and phased work where required.
Can damp-related preparation form part of a Stellenbosch repaint?
Yes. Where moisture contributes to coating failure, we assess the visible symptoms and possible moisture routes before specifying suitable preparation. Active building or plumbing defects still require separate repair.
Why can boundary-wall paint fail repeatedly?
Boundary walls can receive moisture from soil, irrigation, planted beds, the opposite face or below the wall. Painting the visible face cannot permanently stop continuing moisture entering from another direction.
Why is chalking important before painting?
Chalking leaves a loose powdery layer on an ageing coating. New paint applied directly over an unstable chalk layer can have poor adhesion, so cleaning and stabilisation may be required first.
How do you repair cracks before painting?
Cracks are treated according to their width and condition. Hairline cracks, map cracking, wider plaster cracks and movement joints can require different preparation methods.
Do you paint and varnish exterior timber?
Yes. Suitable windows, doors, fascia boards, pergolas and other exterior timber can be sanded, repaired, primed and painted or re-varnished according to the existing finish and substrate condition.
Do you use subcontracted painting teams?
No. Painters Cape Town uses full-time employed painters rather than subcontracted painting teams.
Is a working foreman present?
Yes. A working foreman supervises preparation, protection, workmanship, communication and daily site progress.
How much painting experience do you have?
Painters Cape Town has 27 years of painting and surface-preparation experience.
Are you insured?
Yes. Painters Cape Town carries Public Liability Insurance through OUTsurance.
Do you provide written diagnostic reports?
Yes. Our quotations include written diagnostic observations describing relevant surface conditions, defects, preparation requirements and important limitations.
How long can properly prepared Stellenbosch paintwork last?
Where moisture, cracking, chalking, rust, failed seals, poor adhesion and other defects are resolved first, properly prepared exterior paintwork can often provide an approximately 8–10 year maintenance cycle depending on exposure and maintenance.
Can supplier coating warranties apply?
Where a qualifying supplier or manufacturer specification is formally issued and followed, a 7–8 year written coating warranty may apply subject to its own terms and exclusions. Active damp, boundary walls, structural movement and unresolved defects can carry exclusions.
How do I request a Stellenbosch painting quote?
