Homes and weather in Durban
Durban is a warm, humid coastal city where houses face salt air, heavy summer rain and fast-growing mould. Homes range from Berea and Morningside flats and older bungalows to Umhlanga and Westville townhouses, with large township and informal areas inland. Salt rusts gates, burglar bars, window frames and roof screws, while damp and mould stain ceilings and walls. Flat roofs, balconies and parapets need regular waterproofing. Termites and borer attack timber, and storms can flood stoeps and blocked gutters. Typical jobs include repainting, waterproofing, gutters, security gates, tiling and garage door repairs. Hardware stores and merchants are spread across the metro and well stocked.

Typical kitchen cabinets requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: choosing moisture-resistant boards and stainless hinges that last in humid air
- Suburban houses: fitting new cupboards or fresh doors in family kitchens that need an update
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fitting space-saving units in small kitchens, often with tight access by lift or stairs
- Townhouses and security estates: installing compact kitchens in townhouses with careful noise and access planning
- Township homes and extensions: assembling affordable flat-pack units in new kitchens and extensions
- Older and character homes: fitting new units around uneven old walls, tall ceilings and original features
