What to know locally in Pretoria
Bricklayers from Mamelodi and Atteridgeville work right across the city and quote per m² or per 1,000 bricks laid. Sand comes by tipper from pits to the north and west, so ask for plaster and building sand separately. Paving contractors are busy in Pretoria East estates and on township driveways. Fire bricks for braai and pizza ovens are asked for in Lynnwood and Garsfontein, and repairers in Pretoria West fix motors and moulds.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Pretoria
From Mamelodi in the east to Atteridgeville in the west and Soshanguve in the north, Pretoria's townships keep a large share of the city's bricklayers busy with extensions, double storeys and RDP houses being enlarged. The eastern side tells a different story: estates and complexes around Silver Lakes, Mooikloof and Pretoria East use face brick and plastered maxi brick for security villages and townhouses. Block yards cluster in Rosslyn, Pretoria West and Silverton, while many township stands run a small machine of their own. Winters are cold and dry with frost in the low parts of the city, and summer brings heavy afternoon storms, so bricks curing in the open need plastic sheeting and a slab with good fall.
The requests we see from Pretoria usually come from:
- Homeowners: a homeowner fixing a small manual machine bought for one building project
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: a builder with a site brick machine needing a quick motor swap mid job
- Housing developers and complexes: an on-site block plant for a housing project kept running with planned servicing
