Decks, finishes & trims in Randfontein: local notes

Decks around Randfontein face strong sun, cold dry winters and the odd violent thunderstorm, so a finish with UV protection needs refreshing every year or two. Garden decks and braai areas in Greenhills and Azaadville are usually pine treated to an H3 class or balau. Skirting is a quick tidy-up for old houses once boards are sanded. Cleaning and re-oiling is quoted per job.

What lies underfoot in Randfontein

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.
