What to know locally in Polokwane
Decks around Polokwane face strong sun and a long dry season, so treated pine, balau and garapa all need regular oiling or sealing to stop surface cracks. Lodges and guesthouses near Bendor and on the outskirts often want pool decks that stay cooler underfoot. Composite is an option where upkeep is a worry. Underlay and skirting are quoted per room or per metre, so give measurements for a faster quote.
What lies underfoot in Polokwane
Polokwane has hot summers, mild dry winters and a high plateau sun that fades timber near windows and glass doors. The city has grown outwards, so a lot of work is in newer estates and townhouse complexes on concrete slabs, alongside older homes in Fauna Park and Welgelegen with real timber underneath. As the provincial capital it also brings office, school, church and guesthouse work. Termites are a known risk in Limpopo, which affects suspended floors, skirtings and decks. Fitters and sanders are based in the city and serve towns across the region, so people in Mankweng or Seshego can ask for the same crews.

- Offices, practices and showrooms: dense acoustic underlay that dampens footfall in meeting rooms and open-plan areas
