Polokwane notes on bricks & blocks
Village homes in Moletjie and Ga-Mothapo are mostly 140 mm hollow blocks or cement maxi bricks, built as money allows. In Bendor and Flora Park, estate houses use face brick and pavers on driveways. Seshego and Westenburg owners add rooms and boundary walls in cement bricks. Ask the yard how long blocks were cured before they were sold.
Polokwane: the building, the weather and the yards
Limpopo's main city and its ring of villages build mostly with cement blocks. Families in Moletjie, Ga-Mothapo and around Mankweng put up homes room by room, and almost every village has a small yard selling blocks and maxi bricks off the slab. In town, Bendor, Flora Park and the newer estates add face brick houses, townhouses and complexes, and Seshego grows with extensions and rental rooms. Block yards, brickyards and machine sellers cluster in the industrial area and along the main roads, and many supply the villages too. Polokwane sits on a high plateau with hot summers, afternoon storms and dry winters, so fresh blocks need water and shade more than frost cover.
Typical retaining wall blocks requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: terracing a sloping garden or holding back the bank beside a driveway
- New brick-making businesses: a small yard making plantable retaining blocks in steel moulds for landscapers
- Brickyards and block yards: block yards adding plantable and rock face retaining blocks to their range
