Homes and weather in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town laid out in circular suburbs, with many uniform mine-era brick houses, some now in need of renovation. Bronville, Riebeeckstad and Doorn have older homes, while Thabong has dense township housing. The flat Free State plains bring hot summers, hail and lightning, and cold dry winters with frost. Mine closures have left many homes with deferred maintenance, so roof leaks, cracked plaster, rotten ceilings, old wiring and failed geysers are common. Owners often need repainting, tiling, security work and gate repairs. Landlords and agents refurbish for new tenants. Local merchants stock bricks, cement, paint and roofing, and delivery from Bloemfontein is 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
- 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
- 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
- Shops, offices and rentals: maintaining heavy sliding and cantilever gates at yards, depots and business parks
