Getting your home ready for a Cape winter
The Western Cape gets most of its rain in winter, and the first big cold front often reveals problems that were hidden all summer. Blocked gutters overflow, cracked roof tiles let water in and damp creeps up older walls. A maintenance check in autumn is one of the simplest ways to protect your home and your rental income.
Clean gutters and downpipes, check roof sheeting and flashings, and make sure stormwater drains are clear. Look for signs of damp in cupboards and behind furniture. Landlords should ask tenants to report leaks promptly and act on them quickly. Our property management team arranges trusted contractors for these checks so small issues do not become expensive repairs.
