Homes and weather in East London
East London is a coastal city on the Buffalo River with suburbs like Vincent, Berea, Nahoon and Beacon Bay, plus Mdantsane township inland. Housing ranges from older bungalows and flats to modern estates and townhouses. The humid, windy coast brings salt rust to gates, burglar bars and fittings, and mould to walls and ceilings. Heavy rain can overwhelm gutters and leak flat roofs, balconies and parapets. Termites and borer attack timber, and sandy soils shift under paving. Typical jobs include waterproofing, repainting, gutters, gate motors, tiling and plumbing repairs. Load-shedding makes battery backup for gates and garage doors worthwhile. Local merchants and hardware stores supply most materials.
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
- Shops, offices and rentals: durable washable paint and floor coatings for shops, offices and rental units
