Concrete work in Kariega
Kariega, still called Uitenhage by many, lies at the foot of the Winterhoek mountains, on clays and shale that swell and shrink and on alluvial ground along the Swartkops and Sundays rivers, so heave and drainage both need attention. The climate is dry and warm with strong winds and sudden cold fronts, which dry fresh concrete quickly. The motor industry and its suppliers need heavy floors, hardstand and workshop slabs, and older single-storey houses are extended and repaired. Citrus and farm work around Addo needs sheds, tank stands and packhouse floors. Ready-mix is batched in the area and in Gqeberha, so delivery is manageable, with longer trips to farms.
Typical concrete cutting and coring requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses and factories: sawing machine trenches and floor joints and coring heavy slabs in factories and warehouses
- Family homes: cutting a doorway through a brick-and-concrete wall or coring for a new drain, during home alterations
- Extensions and backyard rooms: opening a doorway from the old house into a new room, with a neat sawn edge
- New houses: coring sleeves for pipes and cables and sawing control joints in fresh floors of a new house
- Farms and smallholdings: coring or cutting for water lines, tank connections and workshop doorways on farms and smallholdings
- Shops, offices and restaurants: cutting new trenches for plumbing or sawing shopfront and lift openings in shops and offices
