What to know locally in Alberton
Alrode is one of the East Rand's machine hubs, with suppliers, spares sellers and yards running static machines and small plants. Thokoza and Palm Ridge have small yards with egg-laying machines making cement bricks for the street. If you start out, see a machine run with your mould and ask about a pan mixer for consistent mixes. Alrode South stands suit a three phase setup.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Alberton
Alrode's factories and yards sit a short drive from almost every stand in Alberton, which makes this one of the easier towns to source blocks and machines. Housing is a mix: estates on the slopes of Meyersdal and the Klipriviersberg ridge, family homes in Brackenhurst, Brackendowns and New Redruth, and growing extension work in Thokoza and Palm Ridge. Estate homes favour face brick and high plastered walls, while Thokoza families add rooms and rental units in cement bricks. Rocky ridge stands in Meyersdal often need retaining walls and careful foundations. Summer storms here are heavy and run off the ridge quickly, and winter mornings bring frost to the low ground near the Natalspruit.
The requests we see from Alberton usually come from:
- Homeowners: making pavers for your own driveway, patio or garden paths over a few weekends
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: pavers made alongside bricks to finish driveways and walkways on house jobs
- Brickyards and block yards: adding pavers and kerbs to a brick or block yard's range
