Building conditions in Jeffreys Bay

Jeffreys Bay is a surfing town on the Eastern Cape coast, with many holiday homes, retirement homes and growing townhouse developments. Strong wind and salt air corrode roofs, gutters, window frames and steelwork, so marine-grade fixings and good coatings are important. Sandy soils and dunes near the beach need compaction and suitable foundations, and wind-blown sand can affect open sites. Rain is spread through the year, with no long wet season. Kouga Municipality approves building plans. Work ranges from new homes and estates to renovations of older beach houses, extensions in township areas such as Tokyo Sexwale, and guesthouses and shops for visitors.
