Six Fountains Residential Estate has grown quickly, and it shows in the range of homes on the ground — compact family units sitting a few streets from considerably larger stands, all built within the same handful of years. That mix means our measures here vary more than most: a modest three-bedroom with standard rollers throughout one week, a double-volume entertainer's home wanting full motorisation and concealed blind boxes the next.
What tends to get specified here
- Sunscreen and blockout roller blinds as the default across most homes — reliable, made-to-measure, and priced for a wide range of budgets.
- Motorised systems on the larger stands, particularly for entertainment areas and double-volume glazing that would otherwise need a ladder.
- Roller shutters and external venetians on street-facing and west elevations — a sensible sun-control standard that also handles the highveld's hail season.
- Concealed blind boxes for homeowners who reach us while their build is still open, before the ceiling closes.
Estate rules here, as on most security estates, tend to focus on anything visible from the street or common areas — we keep exterior colours and profiles neutral and can supply documentation if your scheme needs it.
