Bricks, blocks and brick making in Roodepoort

West of Johannesburg, Roodepoort grew up along the gold reef, and its older suburbs like Florida, Discovery and Horison sit close to old mine land along the Main Reef Road. Newer growth is north west, where estates and complexes in Ruimsig, Wilgeheuwel, Little Falls and Honeydew use face brick and plastered maxi brick in large volumes. Dobsonville and Braamfischerville, on the Soweto side, build rooms and boundary walls in cement bricks from small yards nearby. Industrial stands in Roodepoort West, Laser Park and Honeydew hold block yards and hardware stores. Frost settles in the valleys around the Kloofendal ridges in winter, and spring winds dry fresh cement bricks quickly, so keep them damp.
