Concrete work in Newcastle
Newcastle is an industrial town in the northern KwaZulu-Natal foothills, with dolerite, shale and expansive clays in places, so soil tests and stiffened rafts are common for houses. Winters bring hard frost, so fresh concrete needs covering, while summers are hot with hail and storms. Steel, textile and chemical industries, shopping centres and distribution yards need heavy floors and hardstand, and new complexes in Madadeni and the suburbs add housing. Older slabs on mining-affected or poorly compacted ground often crack and settle. Ready-mix is batched in town, but large specialist orders may come from Gauteng or Durban, and farm sites towards Utrecht and Dannhauser involve long gravel roads.
Typical concrete waterproofing requests in the area come from:
- Warehouses and factories: sealing roof decks, bund walls and sumps in factories, and protecting slabs in wash bays
- New houses: coating a new flat roof slab and treating basement or retaining walls before backfilling
- Family homes: sealing a leaking flat roof over a garage or patio, or a damp floor slab in an older house
- Shops, offices and restaurants: treating flat roofs above shops and offices, and damp basements, lift pits and service floors
- Extensions and backyard rooms: waterproofing the roof of a new room and the joint where it meets the existing house
- Farms and smallholdings: lining reservoirs, concrete tanks and dairy floors, and sealing roofs on farm buildings
