Building conditions in Randburg

Randburg's established suburbs were mostly built between the 1960s and 1980s, so much of the building work is renovation: new roofs, updated kitchens and bathrooms, enclosed patios and extra bedrooms or garden flats. Older houses often have tired waterproofing on flat roofs and parapets, cracked plaster and outdated plumbing. Rocky ground around Northcliff and Linden can slow excavation for extensions and pools, while other areas have clay soils that need careful foundation design. Building plans go to the City of Johannesburg. Retail strips and light industrial pockets in Strijdom Park and Ferndale bring shop fitting and workshop alterations. Summer hail damages roofs regularly.
