Homes and weather in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg is KwaZulu-Natal's capital, known for red-brick Victorian buildings, tree-lined avenues and cooler, wetter weather than Durban. Heritage homes in Scottsville, Clarendon and Hilton have corrugated iron roofs, sash windows and timber floors that need skilled repair. Summer thunderstorms and mist cause damp, rotting timber and leaking roofs and gutters, and termites and borer are active. Newer complexes and Edendale township housing add demand for waterproofing, tiling, painting and security work. Owners of older buildings should check heritage rules before altering exteriors. Typical jobs include roof repairs, ceilings, damp treatment, plumbing and electrical faults. The city has established hardware stores and merchants serving trade and households.
Typical paint supplies requests in the area come from:
- Older and character homes: breathable paints, lime wash and matching enamels for period walls, sashes and ceilings
- Suburban houses: exterior acrylic and enamel for boundary walls, fascias, gates and the front door
- Townhouses and security estates: paint that matches the approved colour scheme for units and common walls
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: low-odour interior paint, fillers and small tools for rooms and balconies
- 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
