Building conditions in Sandton

Sandton has some of the country's highest-value homes, and building work here is often about major renovations, rebuilds and extensions in suburbs such as Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside. Owners commonly add entertainment areas, upgrade kitchens and bathrooms, or demolish and rebuild on older stands, while sectional-title apartment blocks and townhouse complexes need ongoing maintenance and refurbishment. Plans are submitted to the City of Johannesburg, and many complexes and estates have their own approval process as well. Highveld clays can affect foundations, and summer hail is a real risk to roofs, skylights and glass. Office and retail refurbishments add commercial work.
