Prefab and timber building in Welkom
Flat ground and wide streets make Welkom one of the easier places to deliver a prefab unit, though the town's gold mining past has left some ground disturbed. Mine contractors still need site offices and camps, and landlords in Thabong and Odendaalsrus add backyard rooms for workers. Riebeeckstad and the older suburbs ask for wendy houses, granny flats and garden offices. Maize farms around Hennenman and Allanridge order staff housing. Some old mine houses in Virginia are being extended with prefab rooms. Summers bring hail and lightning, and winters are frosty. Suppliers come from local yards or from Bloemfontein and Gauteng, and council plans are needed for living space.
The requests we see from Welkom usually come from:
- Backyard landlords and families: panel rental rooms that stay cooler in summer than bare steel or thin board
- Homeowners: an insulated garden office or extra room built from panels on a level slab
- Contractors and mines: site offices and camp units with panel walls that move from project to project
- Farms and smallholdings: cold rooms for produce, farm stores and staff rooms with insulated walls and roofs
