Homes and weather in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port and industrial town on the Zululand coast, with suburbs like Meerensee, Arboretum and Aquadene, and nearby Empangeni and Esikhaleni. Homes are mostly face-brick or plastered houses, townhouses and flats built since the 1970s. Hot humid weather, salt air and heavy summer rain cause rust on gates and bars, mould, stained ceilings and leaking flat roofs. Termites are very active, and sandy coastal soils shift under paving and boundary walls. Typical jobs include waterproofing, painting, gutters, burglar bars, gate motors and garage door repairs. Load-shedding makes battery backup for gates a priority. Local merchants supply most materials, with extra stock coming from Durban.
Typical burglar bars requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: choosing aluminium or well-coated bars that resist salt rust and keep the sea view
- 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
- Shops, offices and rentals: fitting bars and security gates on shop fronts, offices and storerooms
