Building conditions in Western Cape

Building in the Western Cape is shaped by wet winters and a long, exposed coastline. Most rain falls between May and September, so roofs, parapets, plaster and damp-proofing need to cope with prolonged wet spells, and many contractors try to close up structures before winter. Sandy soils on the Cape Flats and along the coast call for careful compaction, while salt air corrodes steel, fixings and roof sheeting near the sea. Strong south-easterly winds affect roof fixing. Cape Town and the Winelands towns have active renovation markets, heritage rules apply in older areas, and farms in the Boland and Karoo regularly add staff housing and outbuildings.

Typical roof tiles requests in the area come from:

Homeowners: homeowners tile new houses and extensions or replace hail-damaged tiles on older roofs
Coastal and holiday homes: coastal homes use tiles with clips and corrosion-resistant fixings for wind and salt
Security and lifestyle estates: estate homes use the tile profile and colour range allowed by the design guidelines
Townhouse complexes: body corporates reroof whole blocks in one tile colour so units stay uniform
Smallholdings and farms: farmhouses and cottages choose clay or concrete tiles for quiet, cool living spaces
Guesthouses and lodges: guesthouses and lodges choose clay tiles to match farmhouse or Tuscan-style buildings
