What to know locally in Randfontein
Randfontein has fewer supply shops than the metros, so DIYers often buy dining chair fabric, foam and staples on a trip to Krugersdorp or Johannesburg. Cushion covers made to size help keep dust off couches in homes near the plots. Upholstery cleaning is useful after dusty winters, and extraction machine hire is popular with families who clean a lounge suite themselves before visitors arrive.
Randfontein: the homes, the climate and the workshops
A smaller town at the western end of the gold reef, Randfontein has the kind of upholstery work that comes with long-settled households: couches recovered a second and third time, mine-era houses in Randgate and the older parts of town with heavy armchairs and dining chairs, and plots on the outskirts with farm bakkies that need tough seat covers. Mine fleets and contractor buses toward Westonaria send seats for repair. Upholsterers here are mostly small workshops and home workshops in Greenhills, Mohlakeng, Toekomsrus and Azaadville, so specialist foam, leather or a particular fabric often comes from Krugersdorp or Johannesburg. Ask for a sample before the fabric is ordered, and plan for a slightly longer wait.
Typical upholstery foam requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: new seat foam for a sagging couch, dining chair pads and scatter cushion inners
- Upholsterers, makers, designers and DIYers: upholsterers and furniture makers buying full sheets, blocks and bulk cuts of foam
- Boats, caravans and 4x4s: quick-dry open-cell foam for boat benches, caravan beds and game drive vehicle seats
