Supplies & services in Midrand: local notes
Bricklayers in Midrand are often booked by developers for months, so homeowners in Carlswald and Glen Austin should ask for a start date early. Paving contractors lay driveways and complex roads in herringbone pattern, and sand comes by tipper from pits west of the N1. Interlocking bricks are asked for on smallholdings around Blue Hills, and machine repairers in Olifantsfontein handle motors and moulds.
Building with brick in Midrand
Halfway between Johannesburg and Pretoria, Midrand has grown on the open land along the N1, and much of the building is new: estates in Waterfall, Kyalami and Carlswald, rows of sectional title complexes in Noordwyk and Vorna Valley, and office and logistics parks near Allandale Road. To the east, Ivory Park, Ebony Park and Rabie Ridge add rooms and rental units in cement bricks bought from small yards or made on the stand. Developers order face brick and plaster bricks in bulk, so ask about the full order up front for colour. Yards sit around Olifantsfontein, Kaalfontein and Halfway House. The ridges catch wind that dries fresh bricks fast in spring, and summer storms here can be violent.
Typical paving contractors requests in the area come from:
- Housing developers and complexes: paved internal roads, parking bays and entrances across a complex
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: a paving subcontractor to finish driveways and walkways at handover
- Homeowners: a new driveway, a path to the back door or paving around a pool
