Homes and weather in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is the judicial capital, with leafy older suburbs such as Westdene, Waverley and Universitas, newer estates around Langenhovenpark and Bainsvlei, and large township areas in Mangaung. Many homes have corrugated iron or tile roofs, pressed ceilings and timber windows that need regular upkeep. Highveld thunderstorms bring hail, lightning and flash flooding, while frosty winters freeze exposed pipes. Clay soils move with the seasons, causing wall cracks and sticking doors. Common work includes repainting, waterproofing, tiling, plumbing repairs, gutters, fencing and gate motors. Landlords and body corporates serving student and flat blocks need dependable repairs. Hardware stores and builders' merchants are well spread across the city.
