Homes and weather in Kathu
Kathu is a mining town in the Kalahari edge, surrounded by iron ore and manganese operations. Homes are mostly newer face-brick houses, complexes, mine housing and rented units, with Sesheng and Dingleton nearby. Summers are fiercely hot, and the dry red sand and dust get into everything, wearing gate tracks, motors, roller doors and air conditioners. Rare but heavy thunderstorms test roofs and gutters, while cold winter nights can affect exposed plumbing. Landlords and letting agents need regular repairs, painting and turnaround work. Residents also ask for paving, carports, shade structures, fencing and security gates. Many materials come from local merchants, with bulk items delivered from Kuruman, Kimberley or Gauteng.

Typical paving requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: paving driveways, front paths and braai areas, and cleaning and sealing older paving
- Townhouses and security estates: paving small courtyards and parking bays, with approval from the body corporate or HOA
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: repairing shared walkways and parking areas, usually arranged through the body corporate
- Township homes and extensions: paving yards and paths with simple pavers to cut dust, mud and puddles
- Shops, offices and rentals: paving parking areas, loading zones and entrances to shops and offices
- Farms and smallholdings: paving farmyards, entrances and paths with strong pavers that bear heavy vehicles
