Pretoria notes on drawings & surveys

Students pay for rooms in Hatfield, Arcadia and Sunnyside, so owners commission as-built drawings and fire-escape layouts when converting a house. Agents in Lynnwood and Menlo Park use floor plans in their listings, and shop owners in Brooklyn and Menlyn have commercial layouts drawn for tenant fit-outs. Many buyers of older Pretoria houses discover extra rooms that lack approval, which as-built drawings can fix.

Homes and buildings in Pretoria

Pretoria has a different rhythm from Johannesburg: jacaranda streets, red-brick Victorian and Art Deco houses, and a ring of newer estates. Older suburbs such as Arcadia, Sunnyside, Brooklyn, Waterkloof and Muckleneuk hold buildings that may fall under heritage rules, while Hatfield and Sunnyside have student flats and rental blocks. To the east, Mooikloof and Faerie Glen are filling with modern double storey homes, and in the north Mamelodi, Soshanguve and Ga-Rankuwa see families extend their houses and add backyard rooms. Hills and rocky outcrops affect slopes, and the Apies River floods in places. Draughtspersons, technologists and architects across the city quote directly.

Typical electrical plans requests in the area 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
  • Rental and granny flat investors: a layout that gives each rental room its own circuit, plugs and, where wanted, a sub-meter
  • Developers and builders: a repeatable electrical layout for each unit type, so the electrician quotes consistently
  • Shops, offices and restaurants: a layout for tills, equipment, lighting and data in a shop, salon or office
  • Estate agents, sellers and landlords: a layout to show buyers the planned points for an off-plan or newly renovated unit
  • Churches, schools and crèches: a lighting and plug layout for a hall, crèche or classroom block with spare capacity

Local tips for Pretoria

Most asked for in Pretoria: heritage-area alterations, student flats near Hatfield and Mooikloof family homes. Who draws them: architects in Brooklyn and Waterkloof, draughtspersons across the east and north. A useful tip: ask if your old house sits in a heritage area before you plan alterations.

Jobs range from one room to a whole building. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for a plug, light and switch layout for a new house, with the DB, stove and geyser points placed. One local point to raise: rocky hills and clay in places, floodplain along the Apies: ask about site levels.

What to include in your request

  • A floor plan, or the size and rooms of the building
  • Heavy appliances: stove, geyser, air conditioners
  • Whether you want solar, an inverter or backup power
  • Any EV charger, gate or data requirements
  • Whether a registered electrician is already chosen

Fees in Pretoria follow the same drivers as anywhere: the floor area, the drawings needed, site visits and the submission. There is no fair published range for this, so compare written quotes for the same drawings. Send your request and an electrical draughtsperson serving Pretoria will quote you.
What turnaround should I expect in Pretoria?
For electrical plans: layouts in 1 to 2 weeks. Locally: measure-up in a week, plans in 3 to 4 weeks, council often 30 to 60 days or more. Council times vary with the season and the department's workload, so leave room in your building programme.
Who approves building plans in Pretoria?
City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. Rocky hills and clay in places, floodplain along the Apies: ask about site levels. Ask if your old house sits in a heritage area before you plan alterations. For the full process, see building plan approval in Pretoria.
Do you draw the plans yourselves?
No. We don't draw, sign or submit plans. We pass your request to independent draughtspersons, architectural technologists and architects, who quote you directly. Give the stand, the rooms or size, and what exists now so the quotes are easy to compare.
