Building conditions in Bellville

Bellville's housing is mostly face-brick homes from the 1960s to the 1980s, with sectional-title blocks and townhouse complexes closer to Tyger Valley and the private hospitals. Much of the work here is renovation: new kitchens and bathrooms, enclosed patios, re-roofing and adding a flat or a second garage. Soils vary from Cape Flats sand on the lower ground to clay and shale towards the Tygerberg hills, so foundation design depends on the stand. Winter rain exposes leaking roofs, cracked plaster and poor drainage. Offices and shops along Voortrekker Road and in the Tyger Valley precinct see regular refits. Building plans go to the City of Cape Town.
