Drawings & surveys in Kimberley: local notes
Old Kimberley houses with corrugated iron roofs and verandas often arrive with no drawings at all, so measured as-built drawings are the first job before a renovation or a sale. Extension plans for enclosing a veranda, listing plans for agents, and shop layouts along Jones Street and in the CBD fill the rest. Ground near old mine workings may need a geotechnical check.
Homes and buildings in Kimberley
Kimberley grew around the Big Hole, and its older suburbs of Belgravia, Kimberley North and Monument Heights have Victorian and Edwardian houses with corrugated iron roofs, verandas and lacework that may carry heritage protection. Across town, Galeshewe, Roodepan and Ritchie have township houses and backyard rooms being extended, while Hadison Park, Diamant Park and Royldene offer modern face-brick homes. Flat, dry land and hot summers mean thick walls, deep overhangs and sensible roof insulation. Draughtspersons work from Kimberley offices and handle plans for the whole Sol Plaatje area and into the wider Northern Cape.
The requests we see from Kimberley usually come from:
- Families building a new house: a plug, light and switch layout for a new house, with the DB, stove and geyser points placed
- Owners adding or changing rooms: a new kitchen or bathroom layout with extra circuits, so old wiring is not overloaded
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: a layout to show buyers the planned points for an off-plan or newly renovated unit
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a layout for tills, equipment, lighting and data in a shop, salon or office
- Rental and granny flat investors: a layout that gives each rental room its own circuit, plugs and, where wanted, a sub-meter
- Churches, schools and crèches: a lighting and plug layout for a hall, crèche or classroom block with spare capacity
- Developers and builders: a repeatable electrical layout for each unit type, so the electrician quotes consistently
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a layout for a farmhouse or shed with solar, borehole pump and backup supply in mind
Local tips for Kimberley
Plans for Kimberley are mostly drawn like this: draughtspersons around Du Toitspan Road, architects with heritage experience in Belgravia. The requests that come up most: renovations of older houses, backyard rooms in Galeshewe and 3 bedroom homes. When you ask for quotes, ask if your house is over 60 years old before you plan any change.
Around Kimberley the largest group asking is families building a new house, which usually means a plug, light and switch layout for a new house, with the DB, stove and geyser points placed. Expect installed by a registered electrician as the baseline, and keep in mind: hot, dry and flat; old mine ground in places: ask about a geotechnical report.
What to include in your request
- A floor plan, or the size and rooms of the building
- Heavy appliances: stove, geyser, air conditioners
