Homes and weather in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and farming town with tree-lined streets, many older Cape Dutch and Victorian-style houses, and student flats around the campus. Landlords and letting agents keep busy with between-tenant repairs, painting, door and lock fixes and plumbing leaks. Old homes often have tin or tile roofs, timber windows and ceilings that suffer from borer, damp and thunderstorm leaks. Summers bring hail and lightning, while winter frost can crack exposed taps and pipes. Newer complexes and Ikageng township housing add steady demand for tiling, fencing and gate repairs. Surrounding farms need outbuilding and fence work, and hardware stores in town stock most trade materials.
Typical wooden decks requests in the area come from:
- Older and character homes: matching older timber floors and verandas with sympathetic boards and traditional finishes
- Suburban houses: building decks off the lounge or around pools, and sanding and sealing older boards
- Flats and sectional-title blocks: fitting light decking over balcony floors where the building rules allow
- Townhouses and security estates: adding a small deck to a garden patio, with body corporate approval where required
- Township homes and extensions: building simple raised platforms or stoeps from treated timber at the back or front of the house
- Farms and smallholdings: building large entertainment decks, walkways and viewing platforms on farmhouses and lodges
