Drawings & surveys in Centurion: local notes

Investors buying townhouses in Irene and Highveld often need as-built drawings and listing floor plans before selling or letting. Business owners in Centurion's office parks and Eldoraigne's strip centres order commercial layouts for restaurants, clinics and gyms, with escape routes checked against fire rules. Solar and battery points are frequent requests for electrical layouts in new estate houses, and the plans should show the inverter position.

Homes and buildings in Centurion

Centurion lies between Johannesburg and Pretoria, and its housing is dominated by estates and sectional title complexes. Heritage Hill, Irene Farm Villages, Midstream and Zwartkop have design guidelines and an aesthetics committee, so plans often go to the estate before the municipality. Older Lyttelton Manor, Eldoraigne and Wierda Park have family homes on 800 to 1,000 square metre stands, and Olievenhoutbosch and Laudium see extensions and backyard rooms. Dolomite underlies large parts of Centurion, so a geotechnical report is often needed in some areas. Buyers usually want double storey homes with a patio, and plans come from local draughtspersons, technologists and architects.
