Concrete work in Potchefstroom
Potchefstroom is a university and farming town on the Mooi River, with dolomite in parts of the district and clayey soils elsewhere, so a geotechnical report is common before building. Student housing, apartment blocks and townhouse complexes call for suspended and roof slabs designed by an engineer, while older houses add patios, driveways and granny flats. Cold Highveld winters bring frost, so concrete laid in June and July needs covering overnight. Farms and smallholdings around the town need silage slabs, dairy floors and tank stands. Ready-mix comes from plants in and near town, and deliveries to farms depend on gravel road conditions and the weight of the truck.
Typical concrete cutting and coring requests in the area come from:
- Complexes and apartment blocks: coring through slabs for risers and sawing openings in blocks of flats and student housing
- New houses: coring sleeves for pipes and cables and sawing control joints in fresh floors of a new house
- Extensions and backyard rooms: opening a doorway from the old house into a new room, with a neat sawn edge
- Farms and smallholdings: coring or cutting for water lines, tank connections and workshop doorways on farms and smallholdings
- Family homes: cutting a doorway through a brick-and-concrete wall or coring for a new drain, during home alterations
- Shops, offices and restaurants: cutting new trenches for plumbing or sawing shopfront and lift openings in shops and offices
