Why Homeowners in Durbanville Trust SmartCurve
Local Know-How + Climate Sensitivity
Durbanville and the Northern Suburbs face shifting humidity and coastal winds. We use paints and techniques tailored to your microclimate, ensuring durability against fading, peeling, and moisture damage.
Premium Paint Brands & Eco Options
We work with trusted South African brands like Plascon, Dulux, Renu, Titanium, Prominent, and Midas Earthcote (depending on your preference). We also offer low-VOC, eco-friendly, and washable finishes for healthier interiors.
Meticulous Prep & Lasting Finish
A great paint job starts underneath. We repair cracks, sand, prime, mask, and test before any paint goes on. This ensures consistent adhesion and long life.
Our Process: Painting Done the Right Way
Survey & Colour Consultation
We’ll inspect wall conditions, ceiling heights, lighting, and layout, helping you select finishes that suit your style and space.
Prep & Repair
Cracks, holes, peeling spots? We fix them. We sand, fill, and prime so your new coat applies smoothly.
Primer & Undercoat Application
Especially critical when changing colours drastically or dealing with bare plaster. Primer ensures colour accuracy and adhesion.
Painting in Multiple Coats
Using rollers, brushes, or spray tools, we apply your selected finish (matte, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss) in even, clean coats.
Review, Touch-Up & Cleanup
We walk through with you, make final touch-ups, remove masking, and leave your space clean and ready to enjoy.

- Eggshell/Satin: Softly reflective and easy to wipe clean, ideal for living rooms, hallways, and family spaces.
- Semi-Gloss/Gloss: Adds a touch of shine and durability. Perfect for trims, doors, and feature details that need to stand out.
- Washable/Scrubbable: Built for busy homes with kids or pets keeps your walls looking fresh with minimal effort.
- Low-VOC/Eco/Zero-VOC: Health-friendly paints that improve indoor air quality, especially great for bedrooms and nurseries.
- Accent & Textured Finishes: From subtle textures to bold feature walls, these add depth, character, and personality to your interiors.

Our design team can guide you through the options, helping you choose the perfect combination of colour, texture, and durability based on your home’s lighting, wall condition, and lifestyle. We’ll make sure your walls look beautiful and stay that way for years to come.
Surface Preparation & Quality Assurance
We believe the secret lies in prep:
- Repair plaster cracks, dents, and old paint flaking

- Conduct sample patch tests

Quality assurance at each step ensures your paint job isn’t just pretty, it lasts.

- If your painting project includes structural changes, altering walls, or heritage-listed property, permit review may be necessary.
- Always confirm with the City of Cape Town Building & Development Management (BDM) on special zones or heritage constraints.
This means for 90%+ of interior repaint jobs in Durbanville, you don’t need to stress permits, but we’re happy to assist if required.
