Homes and weather in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal has a humid, warm climate, with salt air along the coast and heavy summer rain. Around Durban, Umhlanga and Richards Bay, salt and humidity corrode gates, burglar bars and fittings, and damp causes peeling paint, mould and rotting timber. Inland near Pietermaritzburg and Newcastle, storms and hail damage roofs, while termites attack timber across the province. Housing includes coastal flats, suburban brick homes, townhouse complexes, older heritage houses and many township and rural homes. Hardware stores, paint shops and builders' merchants serve all the main towns, and delivery is widely available.
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
- Coastal homes: tackling salt damage on balcony rails, sliding doors and outdoor fittings in holiday lets
- 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
