Homes and weather in George
George lies between the Outeniqua mountains and the Garden Route coast, with leafy suburbs like Heatherlands, Dormehls Drift and Blanco, plus large township areas such as Thembalethu. Homes include older plastered houses, thatch-roof homes, estates, and holiday homes near Wilderness and Herolds Bay. The climate is mild but wet, with rain at any time of year, so mould, damp walls, leaking roofs and blocked gutters are common. Termites and borer are active in timber and decks, and coastal homes face salt rust. Typical jobs include waterproofing, repainting, gutters, deck repairs, roof repairs, fencing and security gates. Local hardware stores and merchants supply a wide range of materials.

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
- Coastal homes: rust, salt and damp: treating gates and bars, resealing windows, repainting and fixing storm damage
- Township homes and extensions: extensions, backyard rooms, roof leaks, burglar bars, ceilings and plastering on brick homes
- Older and character homes: careful repairs to old roofs, timber floors, sash windows and lime plaster on older homes
- Farms and smallholdings: farmhouse and outbuilding upkeep far from town, where one visit should cover several jobs
