Pinetown notes on machines & equipment
Westmead and New Germany have workshops that build frames, rebuild moulds and service mixers, which makes Pinetown a practical place to buy a machine for a start-up yard in Clermont or KwaNdengezi. A level slab is the hard part on this hilly ground, so many small yards pour one on a cut terrace and keep it drained. Electric egg-laying machines suit stands with power; engine driven ones suit plots further out.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Pinetown
Steep ground shapes most building jobs in Pinetown. Plots climbing towards Kloof, Gillitts and Hillcrest often need retaining walls before a house or extension can go up, while KwaDabeka, Clermont and St Wendolins keep a steady demand for cement blocks and maxi bricks for new rooms and boundary walls. The industrial areas of New Germany and Westmead hold block yards, hardware stores and engineering workshops that sell and fix mixers and brick machines. Being inland of Durban helps a little with salt, but mist on the ridges and heavy summer rain keep fresh bricks damp for days, and runoff on slopes can undercut curing slabs. Deliveries up narrow, winding roads often need a smaller truck.
Who asks for block making machines around Pinetown, most often first:
- Homeowners: making hollow blocks for a long boundary wall or a garage at home
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: blocks made on site for boundary walls, outbuildings and quick structural walls
