Balau and composite last longer with less upkeep. Skirting and trims take knocks in busy rentals, so ask for a hardwood or sturdy finished profile.
eMalahleni: climate, homes and floors
Winters in eMalahleni are dry and cold at night, and heaters run hard, so boards lose moisture and shrink at the joints. Summer storms push humidity back up. Much of the housing is brick on concrete slabs, with older company and mine-linked houses in Clewer and Del Judor, some on suspended pine. Coal dust and fine ash settle on everything, so finish choice and cleaning habits matter. Fitting work comes from a mix of homeowners, landlords letting to mine and power station staff, and small offices along the main roads. Laminate and vinyl are common for rentals, while sanding old pine is asked for in older streets.

Who asks for pool decking around eMalahleni, most often first:

- Homeowners: a grooved timber surround for a family pool, soft underfoot and quick to dry
- Flats and townhouses: a courtyard plunge pool deck that meets the body corporate's rules
