A hands-on team for coastal Cape Town homes
James Painting is a hands-on, owner-run team looking after homes across Cape Town's Southern Peninsula — the coastal suburbs where salt air, sun and winter storms are hard on a house. We turn up, do the work ourselves, and leave a home that looks after itself for years.
We're painters first, but rarely only painters. A repaint often means sorting the roof, sealing the leaks, replacing rotten fascia or rebuilding a tired timber deck first — so over the years we've become the one team that can carry a job from roof to floor.
Interior and exterior painting, roof coating and torch-on waterproofing, carpentry and joinery, kitchens, tiling and general repairs — all handled by the same people, held to the same standard.
