Bricks & blocks in Pinetown: local notes
Retaining wall blocks are a big seller here, set back course by course on the slopes of Kloof, Gillitts and Forest Hills, with drainage behind them. In KwaDabeka and Clermont, most rooms go up in hollow blocks or cement maxi bricks and are plastered. Older homes in central Pinetown and Sarnia are often face brick, so match the colour from one batch when you extend.
Building with brick in Pinetown
Steep ground shapes most building jobs in Pinetown. Plots climbing towards Kloof, Gillitts and Hillcrest often need retaining walls before a house or extension can go up, while KwaDabeka, Clermont and St Wendolins keep a steady demand for cement blocks and maxi bricks for new rooms and boundary walls. The industrial areas of New Germany and Westmead hold block yards, hardware stores and engineering workshops that sell and fix mixers and brick machines. Being inland of Durban helps a little with salt, but mist on the ridges and heavy summer rain keep fresh bricks damp for days, and runoff on slopes can undercut curing slabs. Deliveries up narrow, winding roads often need a smaller truck.
Typical cement bricks requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: cement bricks for an extension, a garage or a plastered boundary wall
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: bulk cement stock bricks from a nearby yard to cut transport costs
- Landscapers and paving teams: cement bricks for plastered garden walls, planters and braai stands
