Homes and weather in Durban
Durban is a warm, humid coastal city where houses face salt air, heavy summer rain and fast-growing mould. Homes range from Berea and Morningside flats and older bungalows to Umhlanga and Westville townhouses, with large township and informal areas inland. Salt rusts gates, burglar bars, window frames and roof screws, while damp and mould stain ceilings and walls. Flat roofs, balconies and parapets need regular waterproofing. Termites and borer attack timber, and storms can flood stoeps and blocked gutters. Typical jobs include repainting, waterproofing, gutters, security gates, tiling and garage door repairs. Hardware stores and merchants are spread across the metro and well stocked.
Typical garage door repairs requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: replacing rusted tracks and hinges and fitting seals against wind-blown sand and rain
- Suburban houses: fixing springs, cables and motors on double garage doors and adding backup for load-shedding
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: repairing basement or boundary parking doors and remotes, arranged through the body corporate
- Townhouses and security estates: servicing shared or individual garage doors and matching the style set by the body corporate
- Township homes and extensions: repairing simple roll-up or tip-up doors on small garages and carports
- Older and character homes: repairing old timber tip-up doors and fitting motors without spoiling the look of the house
