Benoni: the building, the weather and the yards
Lakes and old mine land give Benoni its shape, and its building follows suit: lakeside homes in Lakefield and Farrarmere, newer estates in Rynfield and Northmead, and smallholdings around Putfontein and Benoni Agricultural Holdings with outbuildings and long walls. Daveyton and Etwatwa to the east keep a large share of the town's builders busy with RDP extensions, rental rooms and double storeys in cement bricks and blocks. Small yards in Daveyton supply much of that demand, while larger yards and machine sellers sit in Benoni South and the industrial stands near the N12. Low ground around the lakes is cold and damp in winter, so fresh bricks there take longer to cure and need frost cover.
Who asks for building sand around Benoni, most often first:
- Homeowners: a tipper of building sand and a load of plaster sand for an extension
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: regular sand deliveries to several sites, mortar and plaster sand kept apart
- New brick-making businesses: a new brick maker finding a sand source close enough to keep costs down
