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.
Typical handyman services requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: a running list of odd jobs: leaking taps, sticking doors, cracked plaster, gutters, gates and a room to repaint
- Townhouses and security estates: unit repairs inside, plus common-property work for the body corporate or HOA that must match the estate rules
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: small inside jobs in flats where access, parking and building rules matter: shelves, lights, taps, tiles and paint
- Township homes and extensions: extensions, backyard rooms, roof leaks, burglar bars, ceilings and plastering on brick homes
- Shops, offices and rentals: planned and call-out maintenance for shops, offices and rentals, ideally after hours to keep doors open
- Farms and smallholdings: farmhouse and outbuilding upkeep far from town, where one visit should cover several jobs
