Homes and weather in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal has a humid, warm climate, with salt air along the coast and heavy summer rain. Around Durban, Umhlanga and Richards Bay, salt and humidity corrode gates, burglar bars and fittings, and damp causes peeling paint, mould and rotting timber. Inland near Pietermaritzburg and Newcastle, storms and hail damage roofs, while termites attack timber across the province. Housing includes coastal flats, suburban brick homes, townhouse complexes, older heritage houses and many township and rural homes. Hardware stores, paint shops and builders' merchants serve all the main towns, and delivery is widely available.
Typical gate repairs requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: repairing sliding and swing driveway gates, motors and remotes after wear or power cuts
- Coastal homes: treating salt rust, replacing seized hinges and wheels, and repainting gates in sea air
- Townhouses and security estates: servicing entrance and pedestrian gates and aligning with the rules of the body corporate
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: maintaining shared entrance and parking gates, usually arranged through the body corporate
- Township homes and extensions: repairing simple hinged and sliding gates, welding cracks and fitting new locks
- Older and character homes: restoring ornate iron gates and fitting motors without losing the original design
