Concrete work in Western Cape
The Western Cape has wet winters, dry hot summers and strong coastal wind. Salt air along the Atlantic and Indian Ocean coasts corrodes reinforcement, and the south-easter dries fresh concrete fast, so curing matters. Cape Town sits on a mix of sand, clay and decomposed granite, and the Cape Flats have a high water table and sandy soils. Work includes houses, apartment blocks, warehouses, wine cellar floors and farm sheds. Ready-mix plants are spread across the Peninsula, Winelands, West Coast and Garden Route. Steep mountain plots, narrow streets and tight access in older suburbs affect truck and pump choice, so describe the site in your request.
Typical suspended slabs requests in the area come from:
- New houses: the first floor slab of a new double storey house, cast once the ground floor walls are up
- Family homes: a first floor or balcony slab added to a family home, poured on props over existing walls
- Complexes and apartment blocks: repeated floor slabs for townhouses and apartment blocks, cast level by level over steel props
- Warehouses and factories: a heavy suspended slab for a mezzanine, loading deck or plant platform, designed by an engineer
- Shops, offices and restaurants: an upper floor or mezzanine slab in a shop, office or showroom, designed for heavier loads
- Farms and smallholdings: a slab over a farm store, lodge unit or workshop, with trucks travelling a long way to site
