Homes and weather in Durban
Durban is a warm, humid coastal city where houses face salt air, heavy summer rain and fast-growing mould. Homes range from Berea and Morningside flats and older bungalows to Umhlanga and Westville townhouses, with large township and informal areas inland. Salt rusts gates, burglar bars, window frames and roof screws, while damp and mould stain ceilings and walls. Flat roofs, balconies and parapets need regular waterproofing. Termites and borer attack timber, and storms can flood stoeps and blocked gutters. Typical jobs include repainting, waterproofing, gutters, security gates, tiling and garage door repairs. Hardware stores and merchants are spread across the metro and well stocked.
Typical waterproofing products requests in the area come from:
- Coastal homes: flexible, UV-stable coatings that handle driving rain, wind and salt on exposed roofs
- Suburban houses: torch-on or liquid rubber for flat roof sections above garages, patios and extensions
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: balcony and shower waterproofing in small tins that suit limited spaces
- Townhouses and security estates: approved products for shared flat roofs, parapets and balconies maintained by the body corporate
- Township homes and extensions: roof sealants and bitumen coatings for sheets and flat slabs that leak in heavy rain
- Older and character homes: breathable, compatible products for old parapets, valleys and flat roof sections
