Building conditions in KwaZulu-Natal

KwaZulu-Natal's coastal belt is hot and humid, so mould, damp walls and corrosion of roof sheeting, steel and fixings are everyday concerns for builders and homeowners near the sea. Heavy summer downpours and the floods of recent years have made stormwater, drainage and retaining walls a priority, especially on the steep slopes common around Durban and the north and south coasts. Inland, the Midlands and northern towns get cold winters, frost and summer hail. Housing ranges from coastal estates and apartment blocks to older suburban homes and rural homesteads, with steady renovation work and new estates north of Durban adding to demand.

Typical construction companies requests in the area come from:

Homeowners: larger house projects with basements, double storeys or complex structures suit established construction firms
Coastal and holiday homes: coastal developments need firms experienced with marine exposure, sand and wind loads
Security and lifestyle estates: estate developers use construction firms for houses, clubhouses, roads and services
Township homes and backyard rooms: construction companies build housing projects, community halls and small shopping centres
Townhouse complexes: developers appoint construction companies to build townhouse and cluster units in phases
Shops and offices: owners appoint construction companies for offices, retail centres and shop fit-outs
