What to know locally in Randfontein
Plans here go to Rand West City, a merged municipality, so ask the building control office in Randfontein which forms and zoning certificate your stand needs. Older erven in Greenhills often have title deed conditions from the mining era, and mineral rights notes can appear on the deed. A draughtsperson who has submitted locally will know which departments circulate the set and where delays usually happen.
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.
Who asks for building plans around Randfontein, most often first:
- Families building a new house: a complete set for a new house, with the forms and drawings council needs to approve it
- Owners adding or changing rooms: plans for an addition or a garage conversion, showing old and new work for council
- Rental and granny flat investors: plans for a backyard rental room or an extra dwelling that meet the zoning and parking rules
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: approved plans to complete a transfer, or new plans where none exist or work was done without approval
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a set for a farm building or homestead, with water and sewage solutions where there is no network
- Developers and builders: submission sets for several units, with the site development plan and engineer's details
Local tips for Randfontein
Popular here: extensions to older brick houses, backyard rooms and as-built plans for sales. Ask each draughtsperson about this: ask whether your stand sits near old workings before the foundation is drawn. Who does the work: local draughtspersons in town, architects mostly from Krugersdorp and Roodepoort.
Jobs range from small outbuildings to large houses. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for a complete set for a new house, with the forms and drawings council needs to approve it. One local point to raise: old mine workings, slimes dams and dolomite pockets: ask for a geotechnical report.
What to include in your request
- The erf number, address and municipality
- New build, addition or conversion
- Floor area, or rooms wanted
- Whether the title deed and SG diagram are on hand
- Whether submission and follow-up are included
A rough idea of the rooms is enough: the brief on this page turns it into a block plan and a floor area.
