Building with brick in Randburg
Randburg is mostly settled suburbs, so brick work here leans to renovation and repair rather than new houses. Ferndale, Blairgowrie and Bordeaux have face brick homes from the 1960s and 1970s being opened up and extended, Linden and Northcliff have steep stands that need retaining walls, and the townhouse complexes off Malibongwe Drive and Hans Strijdom Drive replace and raise boundary walls. Strijdom Park and the industrial stands toward Kya Sand hold hardware stores and block yards, and Cosmo City to the north west keeps builders busy with rooms and extensions. Rocky ridges mean shallow soil on some stands, and summer storms run hard down the Northcliff slopes, so drainage behind walls matters.
Who asks for fire bricks around Randburg, most often first:
- Homeowners: fire bricks for a garden pizza oven, a built-in braai or a fireplace
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: fire brick linings for fireplaces and braai areas in new houses
- Landscapers and paving teams: outdoor kitchens and pizza ovens built into a new patio
