Homes and weather in Germiston
Germiston is an East Rand industrial hub with older suburbs such as Dinwiddie, Primrose, Delville and Georgetown. Many homes date from the mid-twentieth century and have asbestos-cement roofs or ceilings, tired wiring, old geysers and damp walls, so repairs need care and the right contractors. Highveld hail and lightning cause roof and electrical damage, and old mining ground can add settlement cracks. Landlords keep rental houses and flats maintained between tenants, and factories and workshops need regular commercial maintenance. Hardware stores and builders' merchants are close by across the East Rand.
Typical waterproofing requests in the area come from:
- Suburban houses: sealing flat roof extensions, carports and patios, and treating damp in older walls
- Shops, offices and rentals: re-sealing large flat roofs, gutters and parapets on shops, offices and warehouses
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fixing leaking balconies, roof slabs and shower floors that damage the flat below
- Townhouses and security estates: waterproofing shared balconies, parapets and podium slabs with body corporate approval
- Township homes and extensions: sealing flat concrete roofs and treating damp walls on extensions and backyard rooms
- Older and character homes: treating rising damp in thick old walls with methods that let the masonry breathe
