Bricks & blocks in Brits: local notes
Farm sheds and staff houses along the irrigation canals mostly use 140 mm or 190 mm hollow blocks. Around Hartbeespoort and Schoemansville, weekend homes call for face bricks, paving bricks for driveways and retaining blocks on steep plots facing the dam. In Letlhabile and Oukasie the usual order is cement maxi bricks for rooms and boundary walls.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Brits
Irrigated farmland, a busy industrial area and the holiday homes of Hartbeespoort give Brits a mixed building trade. Farmers along the canals need sheds, packhouses and staff housing in blocks, while factories add workshops and stores. In Letlhabile, Mothutlung and Oukasie families build and extend in cement bricks, and small brick yards sell straight off the slab. Around the dam, owners of weekend houses in Schoemansville and the estates order face bricks, paving and retaining walls for sloping plots. Block yards and machine sellers in the Brits industrial area serve the whole district. Summers are hot, with heavy afternoon storms, and the dry winters bring frost to the low ground near the Crocodile River.
Typical bricks requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: bricks for an extra room, a garage or a boundary wall round the house
- Farms and smallholdings: bricks for staff houses, stores, kraals and walls around the farm buildings
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: regular loads of stock bricks delivered to site in step with the building programme
