Germiston notes on repairs & protection
A lot of Germiston work is <a href="/thatch-roof-repairs/">repair</a>: a lapa ridge cracked by hail, a thin patch over the braai, or holes from birds and rats. Lapas near industrial areas can collect dust and grime, which a gentle clean removes. When you sell a house with a thatched lapa, buyers in Bedfordview often ask for an inspection report covering the lapa's electrics and fire distances.
Thatch in Germiston
Germiston is a rail and industrial town first. Wadeville, Isando and Elsburg are factories and warehouses, and you will drive a long way through them before seeing a thatched roof. The thatch that exists is in the residential pockets: Bedfordview's large older stands with pool lapas and the odd thatched home, smaller garden lapas in Primrose and Lambton, and some clubs and braai areas around Germiston Lake. So most requests are for a lapa, a repair or a gazebo rather than a new house. Crews usually travel in from Pretoria East, Benoni or the northern suburbs. Thunderstorms here come with hail and lightning like the rest of the Highveld.
Who asks for thatch roof cleaning around Germiston, most often first:
- Homeowners: moss brushed off the shaded side of the house and the roof treated
- Restaurants, pubs and beach bars: a beer garden roof cleaned of leaves and moss in the quiet season
- Wedding venues, schools and churches: the wedding lapa cleaned before the photo season
