What to know locally in Northern Cape
Bricklayers in Kimberley, Upington and Kathu quote per square metre or per 1,000 bricks laid, and on farms the team is often booked for a full job with lodging. Sand along the Orange and Vaal rivers near Upington and Douglas is used for bricks and plaster. Fire bricks are needed for farm boilers and mine kilns, and repairs to machines in remote towns usually mean posting the parts.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Northern Cape
Distance is part of the price of every brick in the Northern Cape. Kimberley and Upington have the bigger yards, but a farmhouse near Carnarvon or a school extension in Pofadder may be hundreds of kilometres from the nearest pallet, so many towns make their own cement bricks locally with a small machine and Orange River or pit sand. Mining towns such as Kathu, Postmasburg and Kuruman add rented housing and new extensions, and the Karoo towns of De Aar and Colesberg build farm sheds, dams and kraals. Kimberley's older suburbs still have red face brick to match. Fierce sun and dry wind crack fresh bricks, and the Karoo gets hard winter frost.
