Roof Painting in Fish Hoek and the False Bay Coast

By Fish Hoek Painters - Expert advice from the professionals

HomeBlog › How to Choose the Right Paint Colour
Roof Painting

Roof painting is an important maintenance priority for Fish Hoek homeowners. The False Bay coast receives significant winter rainfall, and the combination of moisture, biological growth and UV degradation means that roofs need periodic repainting to remain watertight and looking their best.

When Your Roof Needs Attention

Most roofs in Fish Hoek need repainting every five to eight years. Key signs: significant fading and colour loss, algae and lichen growth especially on shaded south-facing slopes, chalking when tiles are brushed, porous tiles that absorb water on wetting, and visible cracking. The biological growth common in Fish Hoek's humid coastal environment can be particularly aggressive on shaded north and south-facing slopes.

The Correct Process

High-pressure wash, fungicidal treatment (essential in Fish Hoek's coastal environment), tile repair, penetrating sealer, and two quality topcoats. The fungicidal treatment step cannot be skipped - biological growth returns quickly through new paint if the underlying growth is not killed before painting.
