What to know locally in Centurion
Olievenhoutbosch and the plots west of the R55 suit a small egg-laying machine, because demand for cement bricks is steady and stands are large enough for a slab. The light industrial stands around Lyttelton and Highveld suit a three phase static machine. If you are setting up near the Hennops River, keep the slab off low ground that floods in summer and ask the supplier about moulds for maxi bricks and pavers.
Building with brick in Centurion
Dolomite under parts of Centurion shapes how people build here: foundations on some stands need an engineer's design, and that comes before any brick order. Above ground, the town is a mix of large estates such as Irene and Midstream, sectional title complexes in Eldoraigne and Rooihuiskraal, office parks near the N1 and N14, and fast growing housing in Olievenhoutbosch. Developers order face brick and plaster bricks by the pallet for complexes, while Olievenhoutbosch families build rooms in cement maxi bricks from nearby block yards. Lyttelton and the Highveld Techno Park area bring yards and hardware stores close. The Hennops River valley gets cold, with frost on winter mornings, and summer storms roll in quickly from the south west.
Who asks for block making machines around Centurion, most often first:
- Housing developers and complexes: a static block machine supplying blocks for estate walls and housing phases
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: blocks made on site for boundary walls, outbuildings and quick structural walls
- Homeowners: making hollow blocks for a long boundary wall or a garage at home
Local tips for Centurion
Most asked for in Centurion: face and plaster bricks for estates and complexes, maxi bricks in Olievenhoutbosch. Where the yards and suppliers are: yards and hardware stores around Lyttelton, Highveld and the Olifantsfontein side. A useful tip: ask whether the stand is on dolomite before you order foundation bricks.
Requests range widely: 390 x 190 mm face, 90, 140 or 190 mm wide. Here, housing developers and complexes lead the requests, typically for a static block machine supplying blocks for estate walls and housing phases. One local point to raise: close to N1 and N14, so trucks from Pretoria and Midrand yards reach most estates.
