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 roof repairs requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: replacing slipped tiles, re-bedding ridge cappings and tracing leaks on pitched family homes
- Townhouses and security estates: repairing shared roofs with body corporate approval and matching existing tile colour
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fixing leaks at parapets, skylights and flat sections above top-floor flats
- Township homes and extensions: replacing rusted corrugated sheets, refixing loose sheets and sealing leaks around vents
- Older and character homes: matching old clay tiles or slate, and repairing valleys and chimney flashing carefully
- Shops, offices and rentals: repairing leaking sheets, skylights and flashing on shops, offices and warehouses
