Prefab and timber building in Kariega
Inland of Gqeberha, Kariega is hotter in summer and drier, with less salt in the air but a strong wind that still tests a roof. The car plant and its suppliers bring steady work for site offices, guard rooms and prefab stores, while KwaNobuhle and Langa add nutec and timber rental rooms on small stands. Older suburbs such as Rosedale and Fairbridge Heights take wendy houses and granny flats in larger gardens. Citrus farms further north in the Sundays River Valley house staff in prefab units. Thin walls get very hot here, so ask for insulation and roof ventilation. Most wendy and nutec yards are in Gqeberha, a short trip down the R75.
