What to know locally in Rustenburg
Rustenburg has plenty of first-time brick makers, often with an egg-laying machine and a slab behind a house in Boitekong or Marikana. Ask the supplier about output with your mould and crew, single or three phase power, and diesel options for sites with no electricity. Second hand machines change hands often; check the mould for wear and the vibrator motor before paying.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Rustenburg
Platinum mining drives Rustenburg's building, from mine villages and housing projects to the many backyard rentals built for mine workers in Boitekong, Phokeng and Tlhabane. Cement bricks and blocks do most of the work, made by small yards across the townships and by bigger block yards in the industrial areas. Some machine operators on the platinum belt move from one housing project to the next. Older suburbs such as Safari Gardens and Cashan see extensions and boundary walls, and farms toward Kroondal need sheds and staff houses. The Magaliesberg brings hot summers with sharp afternoon storms and cold, dry winters, so fresh bricks need shade, water and cover in every season.
Typical brick making plants requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: rarely needed for a house; plants supply the yards that homeowners buy from
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: a contractor setting up its own plant for a steady stream of large jobs
- New brick-making businesses: a well funded venture with confirmed buyers, after starting smaller with one machine
