Local tips for Vanderbijlpark
Popular here: extensions to 1960s sector houses, river-edge homes and workshop layouts. Ask each draughtsperson about this: ask whether a Vaal river stand sits below the 1 in 100 year flood line. Who does the work: local draughtspersons in the sectors, architects from Vereeniging and Sasolburg.
Jobs range from one room to a whole new wing. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for an extra bedroom, a bigger kitchen or a study, drawn to join neatly onto the existing house.
