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.
The requests we see from Benoni usually come from:
- Homeowners: a glass block shower wall or a panel beside the front door for light
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: glass block panels built into bathrooms and stairwells on new houses
- New brick-making businesses: a small building firm adding glass block panels to its bathroom work
