WATERPROOF FOR WINTER THIS SUMMER SAYS INDAWO

Capetonians are looking back on a winter that, once again, brought soaking rains exposing weak spots in many buildings’ surface protection layers. According to professional restorers, Indawo Painting and Waterproofing, summer months offer an ideal opportunity to tackle those damp and leaking problems head on without any interruptions during vital construction processes.

Indawo Painting and Waterproofing and a fair price for it, is what building owners demand. But, does everyone get the quality they deserve no matter what price they pay? According to Indawo Painting and Waterproofing, the industry has taken significant steps to ensure companies do guarantee the quality they promise and have, by and large, been able to regulate businesses operating in this area of expertise.

Indawo managing director, Peter Jäck, says, “Quality starts in-house with the employment of a quality workforce. Your workers are, undoubtedly, the most important part of your business in this industry. Without the right, qualified worker, quality will be compromised. On top of this, the relationship between employer and worker is of paramount importance. By nurturing a positive corporate culture that empowers your people, the collective buy-in of everyone is achieved together with the required quality. That is why, along with all statutory regulations, we place significant emphasis on our compliance with the Building Industry Bargaining Council (BIBC).”

History will remain hidden if heritage buildings are not restored and protected from a harsh climate. The Groote Kerk in Cape Town, recorded as the oldest church in South Africa still on its original premises, is one such building. According to painting and waterproofing company commissioned to paint the church, Indawo, buildings that form part of our heritage demand extra care when restoring.

Die Universiteit van Stellenbosch, geleë in die oudste dorp, na Kaapstad, in Suid-Afrika, is ‘n bekende navorsing- en studie instansie en sedert sy ontstaan die spil van ons land se hoër onderwys. Die universiteit, wat gestig is op Jannie Marais se plaas, Coetzenburg, het ‘n geskiedenis van formaat. Indawo Painting and Waterproofing het onlangs die Jannie Marais Huis op die kampus herstel om sy geskiedenis te bewaar.
