Landlords there add nutec or panel rooms behind the main house, while families in Del Judor and Reyno Ridge put wendy houses and granny flats in the garden. Mine and plant contractors order site offices, ablution units and container camps for jobs near Kriel and Ogies. The town is on the N4 and N12, so most suppliers reach it easily from the industrial areas or from Gauteng.
