Building conditions in Krugersdorp

Krugersdorp is the main town of Mogale City, which handles building plan approvals for the urban area and much of the surrounding countryside. Large parts of the West Rand lie on dolomite, so geotechnical investigations and engineer-designed foundations are often required, and water leaks near buildings are treated seriously. Older homes in Monument and Kenmare are renovated and extended, while newer estates add steady work. Beyond the town, properties around Muldersdrift, Tarlton and Magaliesburg include smallholdings, guesthouses and wedding venues that build cottages, halls and outbuildings. The open countryside is exposed to severe summer hail, and winter frost is common.
