How to prepare your house for interior painting
Let's go over the steps you can take to prepare your home for a painting project
Problem : Mazista Natural Slate Roof replacement (or fully refurbish with new underlayer). My slate roof is in need of full underlay refurb / replacement by specialist slater, or full replacement alternatives eg . metal, shingle etc. It is steeply pitched double storey at 51 deg with multiple large dormers ( x7 ). Total sloped (ie. slated) roof surface is sqm. The fibre-cement gutters can support ladders. Cost of full underlay refurb versus new outer material covering will be key, however migration to a much lighter roofing material like steel (1/5 est) is a strong factor since de-trussing inner sections will allow creation of wanted loft space, so may override cost concerns. Currently replacement thinking is new Standing Seam metal zincalume type covering (if possible due to complexity of dormer valleys), but also metal shingle look alike products, or simply Everite fibre-cement mitred slates. Bearing in mind that the current trusses will be more than capable of supporting any other roofing material without much modification. P.S. See attachment pictures to give a better idea of the dormers and valleys.
I need a professional painter to paint one exterior double-story "weather wall" plus retaining walls in driveway. I have bought 20ltr Dulux exterior wall paint for this project. I need someone that will not waste the supply. Please send me the rates for labour on Whtsapp and then we will take it from there.

Hi there I am staying in the complex I want to repaint my house, the house is basically a 3 bedroom house with a kitchen and a sitting area. I am not sure of the square meters. The house has 2 colours I need a professional that will stick to the painting design and just refresh it that's it. I would like to paint the outside too, the gate. Please feel free to contact me for more info. Thank you
The house to be built is about square meters. I already have the plans but I need your e mail address to forward it to you. The project would be in Hermon, 24 km from Wellington and 30km from Malmesbury. On this plan we need the IBR sheeting to be one whole length sheet of say 1,5 meter wide and 19 meter long. Is such an animal realisable or do I have it miss. work on the complete roofing for this house. Thus kindly send me your e mail and you will then get the plan to compile your quote. Thanks.
Require a carport structure to be erected next to a braai room in my backyard. Material (steel sheets, steel lipped channel purlins, steel flashing and steel poles) are on site. The area to be covered is 6.25 x 3.45. The contractor must be able to erect steel carports, have a welder as part of his team and have power tools to cut steel purlins, steel sheet and steel poles. Roof structure requires welding.

I would like to have a quote on a double garage door supplied and fitted and fully automated. The professional will have to assess whether it will have to be a custom size fit as I cannot have a center post separating the doors. I must be able to fit two cars side by side specifically two double cab bakkies. I would need the entire frame work constructed from scratch for the garage door to fit onto as there is none at the moment except the carport. The professional will need to advise.
The water is getting under the belcony tiles which has caused dampnest of my wall and the paint is pealing off. It's only 6sqm the tiles has to be removed, and torch-on bitumen applied then re-tiled. I want it done as soon as the walls and the belcony has dried completely. Because the last guy that did it said it would last 10 years and it's not even 6, the second picture is to show the state of the walls directly below the belcony. Apologies for my tone but I'm drive texting I won't have time later to do this. But you can send me the qoutes incase I'm unable to answer when you call as my days are usually extreme. Thanks so much for your time.
