Roodepoort notes on materials & supplies

Pole yards and thatch suppliers are scattered along the western plots, so treated poles and laths can often be fetched by bakkie the same week. <a href="/thatch-grass/">Grass</a> comes from further afield and arrives after the winter cut. Venue owners covering large roofs should ask about a <a href="/thatch-fire-retardant/">fire retardant</a> with a certificate, and how often the maker says it must be reapplied.

Roodepoort: the buildings, the weather and the thatchers

Roodepoort's west side is where the city turns into plots. Ruimsig, Honeydew and the holdings toward Muldersdrift have wedding and function venues under large thatched halls, small guesthouses, and family homes with lapas on an acre or more. Closer to Florida and Weltevredenpark the stands are suburban and lapas are smaller. The Witwatersberg ridge and the rocky koppies near the botanical gardens catch summer storms, and the open grassland on the plots dries out in winter, which makes firebreaks and fire retardant real questions for venue owners. Many crews and pole yards are based in this western corridor, so travel costs are usually modest.

Who asks for thatch fire retardant around Roodepoort, most often first:

  • Wedding venues, schools and churches: treated thatch halls where candles, heaters and events add risk
  • Restaurants, pubs and beach bars: treating thatch over seating near grills, heaters and pizza ovens
  • Homeowners: a treated roof and a certificate before the insurer's renewal or a sale
