Homes and weather in Upington
Upington lies on the Orange River in the Green Kalahari, where vineyards and date palms meet desert heat. Houses are mostly single-storey plastered homes with flat or low-pitched roofs, many with carports, stoeps and walled gardens. Temperatures regularly exceed 40 degrees in summer, which cracks paint, bakes flat roofs and dries timber, so waterproofing, repainting and roof repairs are common. Hard water scales taps and geysers, and sandy soils shift around paving and walls. Farm owners nearby need shed, fence and gate work. Local jobs also include air conditioning prep, shade nets, pool surrounds and security gates. Hardware stores in town supply most building materials and paint.
Typical ceiling repairs requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: repairing stained boards after roof leaks and fitting new gypsum ceilings in extensions
- Farms and smallholdings: repairing high ceilings in farmhouses and outbuildings, often with extra insulation
- Township homes and extensions: fitting simple ceiling boards and insulation under corrugated roofs for comfort
- Townhouses and security estates: fixing leaks from the unit above or a shared roof, with the body corporate's consent
- Shops, offices and rentals: fitting suspended grid ceilings and repairing boards in offices and shops
- Older and character homes: mending old plaster, pressed-metal and timber-board ceilings with period-correct cornices
