Homes and weather in Cape Town
Cape Town combines mountain, sea and wine-country weather, so home repairs vary by suburb. Atlantic Seaboard and Southern Suburbs homes face salt, wind and damp, with older Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Observatory needing roof, ceiling and sash window work. Northern Suburbs and Milnerton have newer estates, while Khayelitsha and Mitchells Plain have dense township and semi-detached housing. Cape winter rain and north-westerly storms find weak flashings, gutters and flat roofs, and damp rises through walls. Typical jobs include waterproofing, painting, gutters, roof repairs, tiling, plumbing and security gates. Heritage controls apply to older buildings. Hardware stores and merchants are plentiful across the metro.
Typical door installation requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: choosing doors and fittings that resist salt air, swelling and rust
- Suburban houses: hanging bedroom and bathroom doors, and fitting sliding doors onto the stoep
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fitting internal doors and locks in flats, with building rules on outside doors
- Townhouses and security estates: replacing front doors and security gates within estate style rules
- Older and character homes: repairing or matching old panelled doors, fanlights and timber frames
- Township homes and extensions: fitting strong external doors, frames and security gates in new rooms
