What to know locally in Mpumalanga
Summer storms bring roof leaks to older houses in Barberton and Sabie and to farm buildings, and burst geysers are a common winter call as pipes freeze on the escarpment. <a href="/mould-removal/">Mould removal</a> is asked for in rentals around Mbombela and eMalahleni and in tourist lodges with damp ceilings. Damp inspections suit buyers of older homes in Graskop and Dullstroom, and hire units dry out new plaster and screeds.
Damp and humidity in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga has two climates side by side. The Lowveld around Mbombela, White River, Hazyview and Barberton is hot and humid in summer, with heavy rain, and cupboards, shoes and leather go musty if a house is shut up for weeks. Up on the Highveld escarpment, Graskop, Dullstroom and Ermelo are cold and misty in winter, and stone and brick cottages stay damp for months. Coal country around eMalahleni, Middelburg and Secunda adds workshops, plants and stores where steel rusts and electrical gear needs dry air. Citrus, subtropical fruit and timber also make cold stores and packhouses a steady source of work for humidity control.
Typical damp and mould inspections requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: a visit to find out whether black patches come from condensation, a leak or rising damp
- Landlords, agents and body corporates: an independent report that settles a tenant's damp complaint and shows who needs to act
- Hotels, gyms, spas and pools: inspections of guest rooms and bathrooms where mould keeps returning, before a refit
