Building conditions in Tzaneen

Tzaneen has a subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and heavy rain, especially towards the escarpment around Haenertsburg and Magoebaskloof. Damp, mould and termites are real concerns, so treated timber, good ventilation and sound waterproofing matter on every job. Sloping sites in the hills need retaining walls and stormwater control. The town is surrounded by avocado, mango, citrus and banana farms that need packhouses, sheds, cold stores and worker housing. Lodges and guesthouses in the mountains add hospitality work, while homes in town are regularly renovated and extended. Greater Tzaneen Municipality handles building plan approval for the town and surrounding areas.
