Drawings & surveys in Randfontein: local notes

As-built drawings are common when a Randfontein house is sold: owners find a lounge, carport or flat was added without council approval, and the buyer's bond attorney asks for plans. Extension plans for enclosed stoeps and garage conversions are the next biggest request. Some small farms near Randgate and the airfield also need layouts for sheds and worker housing, drawn over a surveyed boundary.

Homes and buildings in Randfontein

Randfontein is a West Rand mining town where older houses in Greenhills and around Main Reef Road sit on large stands, and new building is pushed towards Mohlakeng, Toekomsrus and the smallholdings out towards Westonaria. Most requests are for extensions to brick houses from the 1960s and 1970s, backyard rooms for rent, and first-time plans for stands in the newer extensions. Old gold workings, slimes dams and dolomite pockets mean the ground varies from street to street, so a drawing often starts with what the engineer finds on the stand. Local draughtspersons and a few Krugersdorp offices draw most of the work.

  • Families building a new house: measured drawings of the family house when no approved plans can be found
  • Owners adding or changing rooms: an accurate record of the walls and roof before knocking down or adding on
  • Rental and granny flat investors: drawings of backyard rooms and extra units so rental income is above board
  • Estate agents, sellers and landlords: as-built plans so the sale can pass the bank and the conveyancer at transfer
  • Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: drawings of a farmhouse and outbuildings, many built over the years without approval
  • Developers and builders: measured drawings of a purchased building before conversion or subdivision
