Secunda notes on bricks & blocks
Backyard rentals in Embalenhle are usually built from cement maxi bricks or 140 mm blocks, plastered inside and out. Secunda and Trichardt homeowners extending a face brick house try to match the original, which can mean ordering from further afield. Plant contractors order hollow blocks for stores and workshops. Ask for the strength of any ash bricks before using them on load-bearing walls.
Secunda: the building, the weather and the yards
Built around a big synthetic fuel complex, Secunda is a company town that keeps growing outward. Family suburbs in Secunda itself and Trichardt add rooms, garages and boundary walls, while Embalenhle grows with RDP houses, backyard rentals and shops built from cement maxi bricks and blocks. Contractors serving the plant need blocks for workshops and stores, and shutdown periods bring work crews who rent rooms, which keeps backyard building busy. Yards in the industrial area and in Embalenhle sell bricks off the slab, and some use ash from the area in their mix. Sand comes from pits around Bethal and Kinross. The Highveld frost and the long dry winter wind are the main risks to curing bricks here.
Typical paving bricks requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a paved driveway, a path to the front door or a patio by the braai
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: pavers ordered for driveways and walkways at the end of a house build
- Brickyards and block yards: a block yard adding pavers to its range to sell alongside bricks
