Homes and weather in Eastern Cape
Eastern Cape homes cope with a varied climate, from humid coast to dry Karoo interior. Around Gqeberha, East London and Jeffreys Bay, salt air and strong wind corrode metal and flake paint, and wind-driven rain finds weak spots in roofs and window frames. Makhanda and Komani have many older and heritage houses with timber floors and sash windows that need careful repair. Township homes and farmhouses are often extended or maintained piece by piece. Common jobs are waterproofing, rust treatment, painting and carpentry. Hardware stores and builders' merchants serve the larger towns, with delivery to smaller places.
Typical burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: fitting bars and security gates to windows and doors on freestanding homes
- Coastal homes: choosing aluminium or well-coated bars that resist salt rust and keep the sea view
- Older and character homes: fitting bars that suit old timber or steel windows and repairing original ironwork
- Township homes and extensions: fitting steel bars and security gates to windows and doors on small houses and backyard rooms
- Farms and smallholdings: fitting strong bars and gates on farmhouses and outbuildings far from help
- Townhouses and security estates: fitting bars that follow complex style rules, with approval from the body corporate or HOA
