What to know locally in Vanderbijlpark

In the older sectors, an extra bedroom or granny flat behind a 1960s house is the common request, and the roof is often reused so sheeting and trusses must be checked. Riverside families ask for double storey houses with a view deck above the flood line. In Sebokeng and Evaton, owners build upwards in stages, so ask the engineer about stair and slab allowances at the start.

Homes and buildings in Vanderbijlpark

Vanderbijlpark is a planned steel town on the Vaal, laid out in numbered sectors (SW1 to SW5, CW and NW) around the old Iscor works. Many houses are 1950s and 1960s face-brick homes on generous stands, now being extended, while Vaalpark, Rust-ter-Vaal and the riverside stands near Bedworthpark hold larger houses with decks and boat sheds. Bophelong, Boipatong and Sebokeng nearby have extended township houses and backyard rooms. Typical jobs are extensions, river-edge houses and small workshops, with local draughtspersons covering most of the work.
