Concrete work in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town on the flat Free State plains, with clayey and silty soils, shallow water tables in places and old mine ground that can settle. Mine-era brick houses are extended and repaired, and cracked and sinking slabs are a common complaint. Hard winter frost means fresh concrete must be covered, and strong winds in the dry season dry out surfaces quickly. Decline in mining has left empty buildings and plots, with demolition and rebuilding work. Ready-mix is batched in the area, but volumes are smaller than in Bloemfontein, so ask about minimum loads and delivery to Virginia, Odendaalsrus and outlying farms across flat but gravel-road country.
Typical concrete driveways requests in the area come from:
- Family homes: a new or replacement driveway for a family home, with a broomed finish and a fall to the street
- Extensions and backyard rooms: a widened or relaid driveway after an extension, matched to new garage floor levels
- Warehouses and factories: a heavy yard slab or truck apron for a warehouse or factory, built thick to carry heavy axles
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a customer entrance, loading bay or parking apron for a shop, office or restaurant
- New houses: a driveway cast after the house is finished, once building traffic no longer damages the slab
- Farms and smallholdings: a long farm or lodge driveway, with wheel strips or full slabs and long truck trips from the plant
