Who builds with thatch in Sasolburg
Sasolburg is a petrochemical town, and in its own streets thatch is not common: honest answers start there. The thatch is near the water. Vaalpark has garden lapas beside homes, and the Vaal River and the Vaal Dam at Deneysville have river plots, holiday houses, resorts and riverside venues where thatched lapas, cottages and gazebos suit the setting. Farms toward Coalbrook and the Free State side carry lapas too. Highveld summers bring thunderstorms with lightning and hail, and winters are cold and dry with grass fires. Crews from the Vaal Triangle, Johannesburg's south and the Free State all work here, so quotes can come from several directions.
Typical thatch roof repairs requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a leak at the ridge or a worn valley on the family home patched before the summer rain
- Farms and smallholdings: an older farm lapa or rondavel re-ridged and patched after a hail storm
- Restaurants, pubs and beach bars: a worn patch over the dining area repaired early in the week, between busy weekends
