Extension Plans in Vereeniging

Many homes in Vereeniging were built decades ago and are now being extended with extra bedrooms, enclosed patios and converted garages. Draughtspersons across Gauteng draw alterations and additions, check building lines and handle the council submission. Give the erf number and say whether the house has approved plans on record.

The main extension plans page explains the drawings, the standards and the costs in more detail.

What to know locally in Vereeniging

Guest houses and B&Bs along the river need a floor plan with bedrooms, a dining area and the escape route marked, and the landlord or bank often asks for it before a loan. As-built drawings are routine for CBD buildings that have been divided into shops and flats. Landlords letting rooms to students and workers often want a simple measured layout for each unit.

Homes and buildings in Vereeniging

Vereeniging is the oldest town on this stretch of the Vaal, with Edwardian and Art Deco buildings around the CBD and Peace Treaty history that attracts heritage interest. Duncanville, Arcon Park and Three Rivers hold older family homes and riverside guest houses, Henley on Klip and Walkerville have smallholdings, and Sharpeville and Boipatong have many extended township houses. Owners usually ask for river-view additions, guest house conversions and as-built plans before a sale or a bond, drawn by local draughtspersons and a handful of small architectural offices that know the old town.

  • Whether the house has approved plans on record
