Homes and weather in Eastern Cape

Eastern Cape homes cope with a varied climate, from humid coast to dry Karoo interior. Around Gqeberha, East London and Jeffreys Bay, salt air and strong wind corrode metal and flake paint, and wind-driven rain finds weak spots in roofs and window frames. Makhanda and Komani have many older and heritage houses with timber floors and sash windows that need careful repair. Township homes and farmhouses are often extended or maintained piece by piece. Common jobs are waterproofing, rust treatment, painting and carpentry. Hardware stores and builders' merchants serve the larger towns, with delivery to smaller places.
