Homes and weather in Newcastle

Newcastle is a northern KwaZulu-Natal industrial town in the shadow of the Drakensberg foothills, with suburbs like Lennoxton, Fernwood and Madadeni and Osizweni townships. Homes include older brick houses, newer complexes and large township areas. Weather swings from hot, stormy summers with hail and lightning to cold winters with frost that can freeze pipes and crack taps. Clay soils move and crack walls, and many roofs on older houses leak at flashings and gutters. Typical jobs include roof repairs, waterproofing, painting, plumbing, ceilings and security gates. Landlords and agents need regular turnaround repairs. Local hardware stores and merchants supply bricks, roofing, paint and plumbing parts.
