What to know locally in Mpumalanga
Collieries and power stations around eMalahleni and Secunda mean many workers rent, so landlords and investors order as-built drawings and backyard room layouts. Tourism around Hazyview and Sabie brings commercial layouts for guesthouses, restaurants and curio shops, with fire escape routes to resolve. Undermined ground near old colliery workings is a real concern, and an engineer may be asked to comment before any extension.
Homes and buildings in Mpumalanga
Building in Mpumalanga splits between two worlds. On the escarpment and Lowveld, around Mbombela, White River, Hazyview and Graskop, timber-and-thatch lodges, citrus and macadamia packhouses and holiday homes sit on steep, forested slopes where cut-and-fill and drainage need careful drawing. On the Highveld, from eMalahleni and Middelburg to Secunda and Ermelo, mining and power station workforces drive demand for townhouses, extensions and shop fit-outs. Further north-east, rural homesteads under traditional authorities around Bushbuckridge and Nkomazi still often combine rondavels with a modern block house. Local draughtspersons and a few architects handle most of this work.
The requests we see from Mpumalanga usually come from:
- Families building a new house: a tidy scaled plan of the family house to test furniture, cupboards and a new layout
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a drawing of a farmhouse or workers' cottage for repairs, with outbuildings placed on the stand
- Shops, offices and restaurants: a measured layout of a shop or office to plan shelving, desks and walkways
- Rental and granny flat investors: a neat plan of a rental room or flat to compare layouts and brief a contractor
- Developers and builders: clean typical unit layouts redrawn from site sketches before the full design starts
- Owners adding or changing rooms: an accurate drawing of the existing rooms to plan walls, doors and a kitchen move
- Churches, schools and crèches: a scaled layout of a hall or crèche to plan seating, play areas and exits
