Machines & equipment in Sandton: local notes
Sandton is not a place to run a brick machine on your stand, but Alexandra and the light industrial areas of Marlboro and Wynberg have small yards making cement bricks and blocks for the area. If you want to start one, a single phase egg-laying machine fits a small yard; ask about the slab, water and cement storage. Second hand machines and moulds often come up when yards move.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Sandton
Two very different building markets sit side by side in Sandton. In Bryanston, Morningside, Hyde Park and Rivonia, the brick work is renovation: a face brick wing added to a 1970s house, a higher boundary wall, a pool house, or a stoep closed in with matching brick. In Alexandra, across the M1, families build backyard rooms and extra storeys on small stands, mostly in cement maxi bricks and blocks carried in on narrow streets. Tower cranes around the Sandton CBD use blocks by the truckload. Few yards sit in Sandton itself, so deliveries come from Wynberg, Marlboro and Kya Sand. Frost is light here but summer hailstorms can damage uncovered pallets.
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
- Housing developers and complexes: lever presses for labour-based housing projects that train local teams
