Homes and weather in Northern Cape
Northern Cape homes deal with extreme heat, dry air, wind and dust, with cold winter nights inland. Strong sun fades and cracks paint, dries out timber and breaks down roof coverings and waterproofing. Around Kimberley, Upington and Kathu, older face-brick and sandstone houses sit beside newer homes for mine workers and solar and farm staff. Sudden rain can bring leaks through tired roofs and flashing. Ceilings, insulation, air-conditioner prep and security fencing are frequent requests. Hardware stores and builders' merchants are mostly in the larger towns, so distances matter and delivery is common for bigger orders.
Typical building supplies requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: bricks, cement and sand for a new boundary wall, braai area or garage extension
- Farms and smallholdings: bulk sand, stone and poles delivered by truck to sheds, dams and farmhouse extensions
- Township homes and extensions: blocks, cement and roofing sheets bought in stages as a room or extension grows
- Older and character homes: lime-compatible plaster and matching old bricks for repairs to period walls
- Shops, offices and rentals: scheduled loads of blocks, boards and roofing for shop fronts and small factory units
- Townhouses and security estates: small loads of matching bricks and plaster for repairs the body corporate has approved
