Building conditions in Ballito

Ballito has grown quickly from a holiday village into a town of security estates, apartment blocks and shopping centres on former sugar-cane land. Many new homes are built in estates such as Zimbali and Simbithi, where design guidelines and estate approval come before municipal approval from KwaDukuza Municipality. The coastal climate is warm and humid, with heavy summer rain, so waterproofing, ventilation and corrosion-resistant fixings and balustrades are important near the sea. Sandy soils near the shore and clay further inland call for site-specific foundations, and sloping stands often need retaining walls. Holiday apartments and rental homes generate regular maintenance and refurbishment work.
