Bricks & blocks in Potchefstroom: local notes
Student flats near the university and in Die Bult often go up in face brick so they need little maintenance, with pavers for parking. In Ikageng and Promosa, families build in cement maxi bricks and 140 mm blocks. Baillie Park homeowners add boundary walls and garages. Order all face bricks for a building at once so the colour stays even.
Building with brick in Potchefstroom
Student housing is a big part of the brick trade in Potchefstroom. Investors build rooms, flats and communes near the university, and owners in Die Bult and Van der Hoff Park convert and extend older homes. Ikageng, Promosa and Mohadin grow with family houses and backyard rooms in cement bricks and blocks, and the farms along the Mooi River and toward Ventersdorp need sheds and stores. The old town has many clay brick buildings, and owners often want face bricks that blend in. Brickyards and block yards sit on the edges of town, and machine sellers come through from Gauteng and Klerksdorp. Winters here are cold, with frost that damages fresh bricks, and summers bring heavy storms.
