Vanderbijlpark notes on materials & supplies

The Free State grasslands are just across the river, so <a href="/thatch-grass/">thatch grass</a> has a fairly short trip here. Treated poles for riverside structures should be at the right hazard class for damp ground. Some river resorts use synthetic thatch on bar umbrellas and small gazebos near the water, where real grass stays wet longest; ask about its fire rating.

Thatch in Vanderbijlpark

Vanderbijlpark was built as a steel town, and its grid of suburbs has little thatch. The river changes that. Along the Vaal, west of town toward Parys, riverside plots, holiday homes and resorts have thatched chalets, boathouses, bars and big lapas looking over the water, and Vaalpark across the river has homes with pool lapas. Weekend river properties are often empty during the week, so small problems can go unnoticed until they leak. Damp air by the water grows moss on shaded roofs, and birds nesting in the reeds love pulling at thatch. Most crews come from Vereeniging, the south of Johannesburg or further afield.

Who asks for synthetic thatch around Vanderbijlpark, most often first:

  • Resorts and holiday parks: rows of umbrellas, gazebos and unit roofs in humid coastal air
  • Restaurants, pubs and beach bars: beach bar and terrace roofs that face salt air and heavy use every day
  • Homeowners: a pool lapa or coastal home roof that keeps the thatch look with less upkeep
