Homes and weather in Worcester
Worcester is a Breede River Valley town surrounded by vineyards, orchards and mountains, with older Cape Dutch and Victorian homes, newer complexes, and Zwelethemba township. Summers are very hot and dry, which fades paint and dries timber doors, while winter brings cold rain and occasional snow on the nearby peaks. Roof leaks, blocked gutters and rising damp show up in the wet months. Thatch and old corrugated roofs need regular upkeep, and wind can loosen sheets. Typical jobs include repainting, waterproofing, roof repairs, fencing, gates, plumbing and security upgrades. Farm and cellar owners need shed and outbuilding repairs. Local hardware stores and merchants supply building materials, paint and irrigation fittings.
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
- Older and character homes: lime-compatible plaster and matching old bricks for repairs to period walls
- 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
- Townhouses and security estates: small loads of matching bricks and plaster for repairs the body corporate has approved
- Shops, offices and rentals: scheduled loads of blocks, boards and roofing for shop fronts and small factory units
