Building conditions in Kimberley

Kimberley's climate is hot and dry, with extreme summer heat and cold winter nights. Roof insulation, light-coloured roofs, wide overhangs and shading make a large difference to comfort indoors. Soils vary, with clays in parts of the city that expand and shrink, and hard, rocky ground and calcrete elsewhere that can slow excavation. Summer thunderstorms are brief but intense, so gutters and stormwater still matter. Older homes from the mining era, some with corrugated-iron roofs and verandahs, are often renovated, while Galeshewe and other townships see extensions. Sol Plaatje Municipality approves building plans, and government offices, schools and shops add commercial and public work.
