Drawings & surveys in Pietermaritzburg: local notes
Alterations to old brick houses in Scottsville and the city centre commonly start with a measured as-built survey of walls, floors and sash windows. Shops in Church Street and the central business district are drawn for tenant fit-outs. Student rooms near the university in Scottsville and Pelham are typical rental extensions, and need escape routes and fire details shown.
Homes and buildings in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg is the old colonial capital of Natal, and its Victorian and Edwardian streets still hold many buildings that are older than 60 years. Scottsville, Clarendon, Chase Valley and Athlone have older houses that are extended or restored, while Hayfields, Montrose and Wembley have large family stands. Edendale, Imbali and Northdale have dense township housing with extensions and rental rooms, and the Midlands towns of Hilton and Howick spread out along the N3. Cooler winters than the coast and summer thunderstorms influence roofs and drainage. Architects handle the heritage work, while draughtspersons cover most houses.

The requests we see from Pietermaritzburg usually come from:
- Families building a new house: views of the planned house to choose roof, brick and finishes before ordering materials
- Owners adding or changing rooms: a render of the extension against the old house to compare roof shapes and windows
- Rental and granny flat investors: renders of a block of rooms or flats to present to a bank or partner
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: 3D floor plans that help buyers understand a flat or an unbuilt unit
- Shops, offices and restaurants: an interior view of a restaurant, salon or shop to agree the fit-out with the landlord
- Churches, schools and crèches: an exterior view of a church, hall or school building for congregation or donors
- Developers and builders: exterior views and walkthroughs of each unit type for off-plan sales and investors

For families building a new house, the biggest group here, that usually means views of the planned house to choose roof, brick and finishes before ordering materials. On the ground: midlands thunderstorms and cold winters: ask about drainage and roof insulation.
