Homes and weather in Free State
Free State homes sit on open Highveld plains with cold winters, hot summers and fierce storms. Hail, lightning and strong wind damage roofs, gutters and electrical equipment, and expansive clay soils open cracks in walls, floors and paving. Bloemfontein, Welkom and Bethlehem have older sandstone and face-brick homes, newer complexes, mining and farm housing, and township houses that are extended over time. Frost can burst exposed pipes, so plumbing repairs rise in July. Hardware stores and builders' merchants serve each main town, and farm and small-town jobs often need bulk delivery by truck.
Typical plumbing repairs requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: fixing taps, cisterns, garden taps and drains in freestanding houses with older pipework
- Farms and smallholdings: repairing borehole feeds, tank connections, troughs and farmhouse pipes
- Township homes and extensions: repairing taps, toilets and outside standpipes, and fixing leaks on shared supply lines
- Older and character homes: dealing with old galvanised and lead-era pipes and fitting period-style taps
- Townhouses and security estates: repairing fittings inside the unit, with shared pipes and water meters reported to the body corporate
- Shops, offices and rentals: repairing taps, urinals, cisterns and drains in shops and offices with minimal downtime
