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 ceiling repairs requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: repairing stained boards after roof leaks and fitting new gypsum ceilings in extensions
- Townhouses and security estates: fixing leaks from the unit above or a shared roof, with the body corporate's consent
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: patching ceiling damage from upstairs plumbing leaks and repainting afterwards
- Township homes and extensions: fitting simple ceiling boards and insulation under corrugated roofs for comfort
- Older and character homes: mending old plaster, pressed-metal and timber-board ceilings with period-correct cornices
- Shops, offices and rentals: fitting suspended grid ceilings and repairing boards in offices and shops
