Westonaria developed as a company town for the gold mines that once dominated the far West Rand, and still carries the practical, working-town layout that mining settlements of its era were built around.
A working West Rand mining town
Westonaria’s fortunes have long been tied to the mining industry, and the town’s older residential streets and public buildings reflect a mid-20th-century mining-town design common across the West Rand. It sits within reach of both Randfontein and the N12, giving residents a workable base for commuting further into Gauteng.
DStv installation in Westonaria
Westonaria’s mostly freestanding homes get a standard single-view install — 60cm dish, Smart LNB, RG6 cabling — with mounting checked against each property’s roofline.
Signal repairs, Extra View and equipment
Westonaria follows the standard Highveld rain-fade pattern. On the town’s older homes we check existing cabling before assuming a fault requires new equipment. Standard equipment is a 60cm dish and Smart LNB with RG6 cabling.
