Mahikeng walls, roofs and weather
Mahikeng is the capital of the North West, and a good share of painting work here comes from government buildings, offices, schools, clinics and the university campus in Mmabatho. Around them are older town houses near the historic centre, 1980s homes and flats in Mmabatho, and growing areas of RDP houses and self built homes in Montshiwa and Lomanyaneng. The climate is hot and dry for much of the year, with strong sun that fades colour and dries paint fast, and summer thunderstorms with some hail. Dust settles on walls and roofs. Government departments, contractors on public tenders, landlords and families extending their homes ask for painters and paint most.
Typical waterproofing membranes requests in the area come from:
- Schools, churches and public buildings: flat roof membranes on school blocks, halls and clinic buildings
- Homeowners: fibre membrane and liquid coats on a leaking flat roof over a lounge
- Builders and developers: torch-on over new concrete slabs and balconies before tiling or handover
