Homes and weather in Newcastle
Newcastle is a northern KwaZulu-Natal industrial town in the shadow of the Drakensberg foothills, with suburbs like Lennoxton, Fernwood and Madadeni and Osizweni townships. Homes include older brick houses, newer complexes and large township areas. Weather swings from hot, stormy summers with hail and lightning to cold winters with frost that can freeze pipes and crack taps. Clay soils move and crack walls, and many roofs on older houses leak at flashings and gutters. Typical jobs include roof repairs, waterproofing, painting, plumbing, ceilings and security gates. Landlords and agents need regular turnaround repairs. Local hardware stores and merchants supply bricks, roofing, paint and plumbing parts.
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
- Township homes and extensions: replacing rusted corrugated sheets, refixing loose sheets and sealing leaks around vents
- Townhouses and security estates: repairing shared roofs with body corporate approval and matching existing tile colour
- Shops, offices and rentals: repairing leaking sheets, skylights and flashing on shops, offices and warehouses
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fixing leaks at parapets, skylights and flat sections above top-floor flats
- Older and character homes: matching old clay tiles or slate, and repairing valleys and chimney flashing carefully
