Building conditions in Secunda

Secunda was built as a planned town in the late 1970s and 1980s to house workers for the synthetic fuels plant and nearby coal mines. Much of the housing is of similar age and design, so renovations, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, re-roofing and additions are common. Embalenhle sees steady growth in township homes, extensions and backyard rooms. Highveld summers bring thunderstorms and hail, and winters are frosty. Clay soils in places can expand and shrink, so foundations should suit the site. Govan Mbeki Municipality approves building plans, and the industrial complex creates demand for workshops, storage buildings and contractor facilities nearby.
