A Team Painters leads the way in Durban’s home painting sector, blending innovation with durability and style to meet the region’s unique needs. Here’s a closer look at what’s shaping local painting projects—and how you can update your home with creative flair and long-lasting finishes.

Durability Meets Style: Exterior Weather‑Resistant Coatings

Durban’s coastal humidity, sun intensity, and occasional rain demand paint that can withstand extremes. A Team Painters offers liquid rubber coatings, waterproofing, and high-quality exterior finishes to protect homes while keeping aesthetics fresh.

Liquid rubber coatings seal roofs and parapets, stopping leaks and reducing maintenance.

Weather-resistant exterior paints combat UV damage, salt spray, and mildew.

Waterproof membranes and damp‑proofing products prevent rising damp in walls and basements.

 

All work is backed by warranties: 3 years exterior, 4 years interior—the kind of assurance that gives peace of mind.

Interior Accent Walls & Texture Trends

Inside homes, accent walls are still trending—but with personalized touches:

Rich, bold hues on feature walls draw attention to architectural elements like fireplaces or staircases.

Subtle textured finishes—think velvety mattes, faux concrete, or metallic glazes—add depth without overwhelming.

A Team Painters offers expert colour proofing and texture application to ensure results match expectations.

These tailored touches create impactful interiors without full-room painting.

Eco‑Friendly & Safe Coatings

As homeowners grow eco-conscious, low-VOC, low-odor paints are gaining traction. A Team Painters emphasises safety and sustainability without sacrificing quality or durability. Ideal for:

Young families and pet household.

Allergy- or asthma-sensitive residents

Those seeking fresher air and healthier interiors

High-performance paint doesn’t have to include harsh chemicals.

Faux Finishes & Decorative Techniques

Sophisticated finishes are becoming more accessible:

Decorative faux techniques mimic marble, wood, or plaster at a fraction of the cost.

Feature stripes or two-tone trims add refinements that elevate interior design.

Expert application by A Team Painters ensures precise texture blending and clean edges.

These touches add style while maximising value per painted area.

Roof & High‑Pressure Cleaning Prep

Proper paint success starts with excellent preparation:

High‑pressure cleaning removes moss, mildew, and old flaking paint.

Roof prep includes addressing damaged tiles, fixings, and underlayment before primer and topcoat application.

This thorough prep extends paint life and improves finish quality.
