Homes and weather in Gauteng
Gauteng homes take a beating from the Highveld summer. Afternoon thunderstorms bring hail, heavy rain and lightning, so roofs, gutters, ceilings and electrical points are the usual repair jobs. Clay soils in many areas swell and shrink, which opens cracks in walls and paving. Housing ranges from older face-brick suburban homes and townhouse complexes to flats, township houses and farm plots on the edges of Pretoria and Johannesburg. Landlords and body corporates add steady demand for painting, plumbing and tiling between tenants. Hardware stores, builders' merchants and paint and tile shops are never far away, so supplies are easy to collect or have delivered.
Typical carpentry requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: building cupboards, repairing door frames and fitting skirting in family homes
- Townhouses and security estates: fitting shelves and built-in units without disturbing neighbours in shared walls
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: making space-saving cupboards and shelves that suit small rooms and alcoves
- Township homes and extensions: repairing door frames and building simple shelving in extensions and backyard rooms
- Shops, offices and rentals: fitting counters, shelving and partitions in shops and offices
- Farms and smallholdings: repairing farmhouse doors, floors and roof timbers, and building outbuilding fittings
