Building conditions in Margate

Margate and the surrounding South Coast towns are full of holiday flats, retirement homes and older seaside houses. Many stand empty for parts of the year, so damp, mould, rusted fixings and failing waterproofing often go unnoticed until the next season or a sale. The humid subtropical climate, heavy summer rain and salt spray make roof maintenance, sealing and corrosion-resistant hardware essential. Sandy coastal soils and steep sites behind the beaches affect foundations and retaining walls. Ray Nkonyeni Municipality approves building plans. Most work here is renovation, repainting and repair, along with new homes in coastal estates and upgrades to small guesthouses and holiday resorts.
