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 slabs requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses and factories: heavy power-floated floors, yard slabs, machine bases, saw cutting and repairs for warehouses and factories
- Family homes: driveways, patios, carports, garage floors and outbuilding slabs at existing family homes
- Extensions and backyard rooms: footings and floor slabs for extensions, granny flats, backyard rooms and second storeys
- New houses: foundations, surface beds and first-floor slabs for new houses, usually under NHBRC enrolment
- Farms and smallholdings: tank stands, shed and workshop floors, dairy and feedlot slabs and farm-road crossings
- Shops, offices and restaurants: screeded, polished and sealed floors, entrance ramps and slabs for shops, offices and restaurants
