Homes and weather in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg is KwaZulu-Natal's capital, known for red-brick Victorian buildings, tree-lined avenues and cooler, wetter weather than Durban. Heritage homes in Scottsville, Clarendon and Hilton have corrugated iron roofs, sash windows and timber floors that need skilled repair. Summer thunderstorms and mist cause damp, rotting timber and leaking roofs and gutters, and termites and borer are active. Newer complexes and Edendale township housing add demand for waterproofing, tiling, painting and security work. Owners of older buildings should check heritage rules before altering exteriors. Typical jobs include roof repairs, ceilings, damp treatment, plumbing and electrical faults. The city has established hardware stores and merchants serving trade and households.
Typical waterproofing products requests in the area come from:
- Older and character homes: breathable, compatible products for old parapets, valleys and flat roof sections
- Suburban houses: torch-on or liquid rubber for flat roof sections above garages, patios and extensions
- Townhouses and security estates: approved products for shared flat roofs, parapets and balconies maintained by the body corporate
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: balcony and shower waterproofing in small tins that suit limited spaces
- Township homes and extensions: roof sealants and bitumen coatings for sheets and flat slabs that leak in heavy rain
- Shops, offices and rentals: large-roll membranes and roof coatings for warehouse, shop and office flat roofs
