Homes and weather in Johannesburg
Johannesburg's older suburbs, such as Melville, Parkview and Bez Valley, have face-brick and plastered homes with ageing roofs, damp walls and ceilings stained by summer storms. Hail and lightning hit the Highveld hard, so roof, gutter and electrical repairs are constant. Clay soils crack walls and paving. Sandton and the northern suburbs have many estates and complexes, and the inner city and Rosebank have flats where landlords and body corporates need quick repairs. Township homes in Soweto and Alexandra are extended over time. Hardware stores, paint and tile shops and builders' merchants serve every area.
Typical property maintenance requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: turning a rented house around between tenants, including paint, locks, garden taps and gates
- Townhouses and security estates: common-area upkeep and unit repairs commissioned by trustees and managing agents
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fast repairs in flats for landlords and agents, with notice to the building manager
- Township homes and extensions: maintaining rental rooms and backyard units with solid doors, roofs and basic plumbing
- Older and character homes: careful repairs to older rental buildings with timber floors, sash windows and pressed ceilings
- Shops, offices and rentals: maintaining shop and office units so tenants can trade without long breaks
