Randfontein notes on floors & boards
Boards for Randfontein homes need to cope with dry winter air and sudden summer humidity. Laminate and vinyl are popular for rental houses in Toekomsrus and Mohlakeng because they go down quickly over a level slab. Owners in Greenhills and Randgate with original pine often ask whether matching boards can be sourced, and some timber merchants can mill pine to an old profile. Ask for samples seen in your own light.
Randfontein: climate, homes and floors
Randfontein sits on the western edge of the Witwatersrand, and its floors show it. Many older houses in the town centre and Greenhills were built for mine and municipal staff, often with suspended pine boards over a ventilated crawl space. Those boards stay sound when the airbricks are kept clear and the ground outside slopes away from the walls. Dry Highveld winters pull moisture out of timber, so gaps open in July and close again after the summer storms. Local requests are mostly sanding and sealing old pine, patching boards where a wall was moved, and laying laminate over a levelled slab in smaller houses. Many fitters travel in from Krugersdorp.
Typical engineered wood flooring requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: wide oak boards through living and dining areas, with the warmth of real timber
- Landlords and letting agents: a real timber floor for a premium let, that can be refreshed between tenants
- Builders, developers and renovators: glued or floated oak boards across whole houses, laid once the screed has fully dried
