Randfontein notes on tools & supplies
Paint shops and hardware stores in the Randfontein CBD and the Aureus industrial area stock roof paint, metal primers, PVA, crack filler and enamel for burglar bars and gates. Painters working on the West Rand often also buy in Krugersdorp. Workshops in Aureus order epoxy floor paint and steel coatings. Ask for a crack filler made for exterior use, since interior fillers break down in the sun.
What gets painted in Randfontein
Randfontein is a West Rand mining town, and much of its housing was built for mine workers and the families who served them. Old mine houses with tin roofs, face brick homes in Greenhills and Randgate, smaller brick houses in Mohlakeng and Toekomsrus, and newer estates on the edges make up most of the work. Highveld weather is harsh on paint: strong UV fades colour, summer storms bring hail that dents and strips roof coatings, and winter frost and dry winds crack old paint. Pale dust from the mine dumps settles on walls. Requests are usually for roof painting, exterior repaints and crack repairs, from homeowners, landlords, schools and businesses in the town centre.
Typical enamel and gloss paint requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: fresh gloss on front doors, window frames and the burglar bars
- Landlords and sellers: washable enamel on doors and skirtings that take knocks from tenants
- Schools, churches and public buildings: durable gloss on school doors, church railings and clinic handrails
