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 paint supplies requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: salt-resistant exterior paint and rust-treating primers for gates, rails and trim
- Suburban houses: exterior acrylic and enamel for boundary walls, fascias, gates and the front door
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: low-odour interior paint, fillers and small tools for rooms and balconies
- Townhouses and security estates: paint that matches the approved colour scheme for units and common walls
- Township homes and extensions: affordable interior and exterior paint in larger tins for homes and backyard rooms
- Older and character homes: breathable paints, lime wash and matching enamels for period walls, sashes and ceilings
