Homes and weather in Worcester

Worcester is a Breede River Valley town surrounded by vineyards, orchards and mountains, with older Cape Dutch and Victorian homes, newer complexes, and Zwelethemba township. Summers are very hot and dry, which fades paint and dries timber doors, while winter brings cold rain and occasional snow on the nearby peaks. Roof leaks, blocked gutters and rising damp show up in the wet months. Thatch and old corrugated roofs need regular upkeep, and wind can loosen sheets. Typical jobs include repainting, waterproofing, roof repairs, fencing, gates, plumbing and security upgrades. Farm and cellar owners need shed and outbuilding repairs. Local hardware stores and merchants supply building materials, paint and irrigation fittings.
