On the ground in Alberton

Foundation contractors in Meyersdal are used to rock and slope, and often build plinths or stepped slabs, so describe the ground when you ask.

Repair teams fix hail damage and reseal timber.

Alberton: the ground, the weather and the yards

Suburban gardens and a big industrial base meet in Alberton. Meyersdal and Brackenhurst have large homes on sloping stands below the Klipriviersberg, where owners ask for garden offices, pool houses and granny flats, often on plinths or a stepped slab. New Redruth and Brackendowns add wendy houses and rooms for older children. Thokoza and Palm Ridge build nutec rental rooms and second units. Alrode, one of the larger industrial areas on the East Rand, needs site offices, guard huts and prefab buildings, and also holds panel suppliers and erectors. The ridge catches summer lightning and hail, and winter mornings are cold and clear.
