Painting by Innocent Ndou
Most of a good paint job happens before the first coat. Innocent scrapes off flaking paint, fills cracks and holes, sands rough patches and masks the edges, so the new colour goes onto a sound surface. Skipping that prep is why some paint jobs start peeling within a season.
Outside, Highveld sun and summer storms are hard on walls, and walls that face the afternoon sun fade first. Inside, a rental between tenants or a passage gone grubby around the light switches usually needs a fresh coat more than anything else. If you live in an estate, check the colour rules with the body corporate or HOA before you pick a shade.

- A wide photo of each room or wall so Innocent can see the full area.
- Close-ups of any cracks, damp patches or peeling paint.
- Rough measurements of wall length and height, or the room size in metres.
- The colour you want, and if you already have the paint.
- For outside walls, a photo that shows how high the wall goes, including any upper storey.
Getting ready for the job
Before the day, move small furniture and ornaments away from the walls and take pictures down if you can. Innocent covers the floors and any fittings that stay in the room. Fresh paint needs air while it dries, so plan to keep windows open and pets out. Outside work needs dry weather, so a rainy day can shift the plan.

FAQ
Painting: questions people ask
How much does it cost to paint a house in Gauteng?
It depends on the size of the walls, how much prep they need, how many coats the colour change takes, the height of the work and who supplies the paint. Cracked or peeling walls take longer than sound ones. Send photos and rough measurements on WhatsApp to 084 602 2030 and Innocent will quote for your job.
Do I need to buy the paint myself?
You can, or you can ask Innocent to include paint in the quote. If you already have a colour in mind or leftover tins from an earlier job, say so in your message so the quote matches what you have. In an estate, confirm the approved colour first.
Can you paint over damp walls?
Paint does not stick well to a wet wall, and painting over damp only hides the problem for a while. The cause needs sorting first, which may mean waterproofing a roof, parapet or wall. Innocent can look at photos of the damp and tell you what should happen before any painting.
Can you paint a single room, or only whole houses?
A single room is fine. Innocent takes on once-off jobs as small as one wall or a front door, as well as full interiors, exteriors and rentals between tenants. Landlords and property managers can also arrange regular work.
