Homes and weather in Cape Town
Cape Town combines mountain, sea and wine-country weather, so home repairs vary by suburb. Atlantic Seaboard and Southern Suburbs homes face salt, wind and damp, with older Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Observatory needing roof, ceiling and sash window work. Northern Suburbs and Milnerton have newer estates, while Khayelitsha and Mitchells Plain have dense township and semi-detached housing. Cape winter rain and north-westerly storms find weak flashings, gutters and flat roofs, and damp rises through walls. Typical jobs include waterproofing, painting, gutters, roof repairs, tiling, plumbing and security gates. Heritage controls apply to older buildings. Hardware stores and merchants are plentiful across the metro.

Typical hardware supplies requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: rust, salt and damp: treating gates and bars, resealing windows, repainting and fixing storm damage
- Suburban houses: a running list of odd jobs: leaking taps, sticking doors, cracked plaster, gutters, gates and a room to repaint
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: small inside jobs in flats where access, parking and building rules matter: shelves, lights, taps, tiles and paint
- Townhouses and security estates: unit repairs inside, plus common-property work for the body corporate or HOA that must match the estate rules
- Older and character homes: careful repairs to old roofs, timber floors, sash windows and lime plaster on older homes
- Township homes and extensions: extensions, backyard rooms, roof leaks, burglar bars, ceilings and plastering on brick homes
