Painting in Johannesburg sounds simple until you ask whether the existing PVA will accept a roof-grade Plascon membrane, or whether the rising damp on a Karoo gable wall needs treatment before a primer. Get free quotes from verified painting contractors who walk the site, identify prep work upfront (sanding, fungicidal wash, damp treatment), and quote per square metre with paint brand named.

Frequently asked questions about painting & decorating in Johannesburg
How much does it cost to paint a house in SA?
Interior 3-bed (~100m² wall area): R12,000–R22,000 including 2 coats premium paint. Full exterior: R25,000–R55,000 including pressure-wash, crack repair, and 2-coat system. Spec-grade paints (Plascon Cashmere, Dulux Weathershield) last 7–12 years; budget paints 2–4 years. Quotes should specify primer + topcoat brand and coverage area.
What surface preparation should a quality paint quote include?
For exteriors: pressure-wash, fungicidal wash, crack repair with elastomeric filler, spot-prime over bare substrate, masking. For interiors: sanding, hole-filling, dust extraction, sugar-soap wash on kitchens/bathrooms. A R/m² quote without prep listed is almost always under-quoted — the labour to prep is 40–60% of the job.
What guarantee should a painter give?
Reputable painters offer 5–7 years on exterior systems and 3–5 years on interior — backed by the paint manufacturer's warranty (Plascon, Dulux, Prominent). The contractor's labour warranty is typically 12 months. Demand both warranties in writing. The paint can will tell you the manufacturer's product life under SANS 1071 conditions.
