Building conditions in Polokwane

Polokwane is growing steadily as Limpopo's commercial centre, with new suburbs, townhouse complexes, security estates and shopping centres. Summers are hot, with thunderstorms and occasional hail, while winters are dry and mild. Soils vary, with clays in some areas that expand and contract and rocky granite ground in others, so foundation design should follow a site assessment. Strong sun makes roof insulation and shading worthwhile. Polokwane Municipality approves building plans in the city, while villages around it may have different arrangements for land and approval. Township homes in Seshego and Mankweng often get extensions, and guesthouses cater for business travellers and visitors.
