Bricks, blocks and brick making in Klerksdorp
Gold built Klerksdorp and its neighbours Stilfontein and Orkney, and the mine houses, hostels and old brick suburbs still show it. Today the work is mostly homes and extensions: family houses in Flamwood and Wilkoppies, self-built and RDP houses in Jouberton, Alabama and Kanana, and shops and rooms along the main routes. Cement brick yards are spread through the townships, and block yards in the industrial area supply builders and farmers in the maize country around Hartbeesfontein. Some older suburbs were built with clay bricks from the district, so matching them on an extension takes a search. Dry, cold winters bring frost and hot summers bring storms, so new bricks need cover all year.
Typical manual brick machines requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: making bricks yourself for a backyard room, boundary wall or outside toilet
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: a cheap second machine for small rural sites where there is no power
- Brickyards and block yards: a low-cost machine for special orders or for training new staff
