Prefab and timber building in Krugersdorp

Beyond the last suburbs of Krugersdorp, the land opens towards Muldersdrift, the Cradle of Humankind and Magaliesburg, where wooden cabins, chalets and log homes go up for weekend getaways, guest farms and wedding venues. In town, Noordheuwel, Monument and Kenmare add granny flats and wendy houses, while Kagiso and Munsieville build backyard rooms and nutec units on small stands. Parts of the West Rand lie on dolomite, so some stands need a geotechnical check before the council passes plans. Erectors and board yards sit in Chamdor and the town's industrial areas. Rocky koppies mean plinths or drilled footings on some plots, and the area takes hard summer hail and frequent lightning, so ask about lightning protection on rural sites.
