Describe the fault and send photographs of the gate, track and motor so technicians can bring the right parts.

Homes and weather in Gauteng

Gauteng homes take a beating from the Highveld summer. Afternoon thunderstorms bring hail, heavy rain and lightning, so roofs, gutters, ceilings and electrical points are the usual repair jobs. Clay soils in many areas swell and shrink, which opens cracks in walls and paving. Housing ranges from older face-brick suburban homes and townhouse complexes to flats, township houses and farm plots on the edges of Pretoria and Johannesburg. Landlords and body corporates add steady demand for painting, plumbing and tiling between tenants. Hardware stores, builders' merchants and paint and tile shops are never far away, so supplies are easy to collect or have delivered.

Frequently asked questions

What will it cost in Gauteng?
It depends on the size of the job, materials, access and how soon you need it done. Send the form with photos or measurements described and a gate motor technician working in Gauteng will quote you.
How soon can someone come out?
That depends on how busy local handymen and contractors are and how urgent the job is. Choose "As soon as possible" or "Urgent call-out" on the form and give your suburb, and the person quoting will tell you when they can come.
Can one person do several jobs in one visit?
Often, yes. Tick every job that needs doing and list the rest in the details box. A general handyman can usually combine small jobs, and will tell you if a part of the work needs a registered electrician, plumber or specialist.
