Homes and weather in Johannesburg
Johannesburg's older suburbs, such as Melville, Parkview and Bez Valley, have face-brick and plastered homes with ageing roofs, damp walls and ceilings stained by summer storms. Hail and lightning hit the Highveld hard, so roof, gutter and electrical repairs are constant. Clay soils crack walls and paving. Sandton and the northern suburbs have many estates and complexes, and the inner city and Rosebank have flats where landlords and body corporates need quick repairs. Township homes in Soweto and Alexandra are extended over time. Hardware stores, paint and tile shops and builders' merchants serve every area.
Typical burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: fitting bars and security gates to windows and doors on freestanding homes
- Townhouses and security estates: fitting bars that follow complex style rules, with approval from the body corporate or HOA
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fitting clear bars and security gates on ground-floor flats and balcony doors, subject to scheme rules
- Township homes and extensions: fitting steel bars and security gates to windows and doors on small houses and backyard rooms
- Older and character homes: fitting bars that suit old timber or steel windows and repairing original ironwork
- Shops, offices and rentals: fitting bars and security gates on shop fronts, offices and storerooms
