Prices in Randfontein follow the same drawing rates as the rest of Gauteng, but council fees, travel for site visits and the type of stand can change the total. Give the suburb or erf number and the floor area, and each quote will list those local items separately.
The main plan prices page explains the drawings, the standards and the costs in more detail.
What to know locally in Randfontein
Plans here go to Rand West City, a merged municipality, so ask the building control office in Randfontein which forms and zoning certificate your stand needs. Older erven in Greenhills often have title deed conditions from the mining era, and mineral rights notes can appear on the deed. A draughtsperson who has submitted locally will know which departments circulate the set and where delays usually happen.
Homes and buildings in Randfontein
Randfontein is a West Rand mining town where older houses in Greenhills and around Main Reef Road sit on large stands, and new building is pushed towards Mohlakeng, Toekomsrus and the smallholdings out towards Westonaria. Most requests are for extensions to brick houses from the 1960s and 1970s, backyard rooms for rent, and first-time plans for stands in the newer extensions. Old gold workings, slimes dams and dolomite pockets mean the ground varies from street to street, so a drawing often starts with what the engineer finds on the stand. Local draughtspersons and a few Krugersdorp offices draw most of the work.
Who asks for plan prices around Randfontein, most often first:
- Families building a new house: a clear drawing fee for the house, and a list of the extras that sit on top of it
- Owners adding or changing rooms: the price of measuring up the house as it is, plus drawings for only the new work
- Rental and granny flat investors: a per-unit price for backyard rooms or flats, so the return on the rental can be worked out
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: a fixed price for a listing plan or for as-built drawings that unlock a sale
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a fee that shows travel to the stand, since farm and village sites are far from town
- Developers and builders: a lower price per unit when the same house type is drawn once and repeated
Local tips for Randfontein
Popular here: extensions to older brick houses, backyard rooms and as-built plans for sales. Ask each draughtsperson about this: ask whether your stand sits near old workings before the foundation is drawn. Who does the work: local draughtspersons in town, architects mostly from Krugersdorp and Roodepoort.
Jobs range from a 40 m² cottage to a 400 m² home. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for a clear drawing fee for the house, and a list of the extras that sit on top of it. One local point to raise: old mine workings, slimes dams and dolomite pockets: ask for a geotechnical report.
