Building conditions in George

George gets rain in every season, so waterproofing, roof drainage and damp-proofing are central to most building jobs here. Clay soils in parts of the town hold water and can make excavation heavy going, and sites on slopes need stormwater planned from the start. Thunderstorms rolling off the Outeniqua Mountains can be heavy. The town has grown steadily, with new suburbs, security and golf estates and retirement villages, while older homes are extended and renovated. Holiday homes at Wilderness and Herold's Bay face salt air and damp. George Municipality approves building plans, and timber from the region's plantations is widely used for roof trusses, decking and cladding.
