Bloemfontein notes on drawings & surveys
Developers pulling down old houses in Universitas, Westdene and Hilton ask for site layouts, floor plans and 3D views to present to buyers or to the council. Restaurant and shop layouts in the CBD and along Zastron Street, as-built drawings for the many older homes that lack approved plans, and extension plans for sectional title owners keep the draughting studios busy.
Homes and buildings in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is the judicial capital and a university city, with sandstone buildings in the centre, Art Deco blocks along Maitland Street and leafy older suburbs such as Westdene, Waverley and Willows. Large erven there are being subdivided for townhouses and flats, and buildings over 60 years old may need heritage approval. Newer estates and lifestyle developments sit toward Langenhoven Park, Brandwag, Bainsvlei and Fichardt Park, while Heidedal, Botshabelo and Thaba Nchu have township extensions. The ground varies from dolerite to expansive clay, so engineers matter. Draughtspersons and architects are well established here.

Floor Plan Drawing usually suits sketches, existing rooms and new layouts, drawn as hand sketch redrawn in CAD at 1:100. For families building a new house, the biggest group here, that usually means a tidy scaled plan of the family house to test furniture, cupboards and a new layout. On the ground: expansive clay and dolerite in places: ask for an engineer's foundation design.
