Building conditions in Somerset West

Somerset West mixes established suburbs, retirement villages and large security and golf estates in the Helderberg basin. Estates have their own design guidelines and aesthetics committees, so plans are reviewed by the estate before they go to the City of Cape Town. The summer south-easter blows hard here, which makes secure roof fixings, wind-rated sheeting and well-fixed gutters important, and homes towards the Strand and Gordon's Bay deal with salt spray on steel and aluminium. Winter rain tests waterproofing on flat roofs and balconies. Ground ranges from sandy flats near the coast to clay and weathered granite on the slopes. Additions, renovations and new estate homes are common.
