Painters in Kalamunda.
Hills timber, bushfire ratings and a lot more deck than the flats ever see.
The housing
What we're usually painting in Kalamunda
Timber-framed and weatherboard homes on sloping blocks, 1970s–90s brick on the ridge, and a scattering of pole homes and additions in the valleys.
Common substrates
- Jarrah and treated pine decking
- Weatherboard and hardiplank cladding
- Exposed rafters, pergolas and timber posts
- Colorbond and zincalume
- Rendered brick
What the weather does here
Cooler and wetter than the coastal plain, with heavy leaf litter and long damp shade under the canopy. Mould and lichen on south-facing timber is the routine problem, not UV.
Worth knowing
The Kalamunda specific bit
Much of Kalamunda sits in a designated bushfire-prone area, and a BAL rating changes what can be specified on external timber and eaves. It is worth checking the rating before choosing a finish, because some of the film-forming timber products people ask for by name are not the right call on a high-BAL elevation.
