Secunda walls, roofs and weather
Secunda was laid out for the petrochemical plant, so much of the housing in Secunda, Trichardt and Evander dates from the same building waves: plastered and face brick family homes on large stands, company houses, and newer complexes. Emissions and fine dust from the plant and the nearby coal mines can leave a film on walls and windows and speed up rust on roofs and steel gates. Highveld frost in winter and summer hail and lightning storms add to the wear. Homeowners ask for whole exterior repaints and roof coatings, contractors at the plant need industrial coatings and epoxy floors, and Embalenhle has steady demand for house painting as families extend.
Who asks for primers and undercoats around Secunda, most often first:
- Factories, farms and mines: rust-inhibiting primers on steel structures and galvanised roof sheeting
- Homeowners: bonding liquid on a chalky old outside wall before a fresh top coat
- Landlords and sellers: primer on filled patches and stains so a quick repaint looks even
