Materials & supplies in Roodepoort: local notes

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.

Thatch in Roodepoort

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.

Typical thatch grass requests in the area come from:

  • Wedding venues, schools and churches: grass for a thatched wedding lapa or chapel roof timed around the busy season
  • Restaurants, pubs and beach bars: grass for an outdoor seating roof or umbrellas over tables that need regular renewal
  • Homeowners: grass for a garden lapa, a top-up over a thin patch or a full re-thatch of the house
