Homes and weather in Western Cape

Western Cape homes are shaped by wet, windy winters and dry, hot summers. North-westerly storms drive rain into roofs, windows and walls, so waterproofing, gutters and damp treatment are common jobs. Along the coast, salt and wind rust gates and fittings. Cape Town, Stellenbosch and Paarl have many older and heritage homes, Cape Dutch and Victorian houses, plus flats, estates and townhouse complexes. Informal and township housing needs repair after winter storms. Summer heat dries timber, so painting and decks need attention. Hardware stores, tile and paint shops and builders' merchants are plentiful, and delivery is widely available.
