Frequently asked questions

How much are steel frame houses in Bellville?
No two requests cost the same, because sizes, stands and finishes differ. A published guide puts it at usually about R8,000 to R15,000 per m² built, depending on size and finishes. A free request gets you prices from light steel frame builders who work locally.
What lead time should I expect in Bellville?
For steel frame houses: frame goes up fast once the slab is cast. Locally: wendy houses usually in 1 to 3 weeks; granny flats quoted per job. Plans, the slab and the weather can add time, so ask for a date in writing.
Is there anything local to watch for in Bellville?
For steel frame houses, start with how it gets to you: kits by flatbed from northern suburbs yards along the N1 and R300. Then the weather: hotter summers than the coast, wet winters, clay on the Tygerberg hills. And ask this: ask whether the granny flat quote includes plans, the slab and the electrical CoC. The pages on delivery and installation in Bellville and house plans in Bellville cover the steps around the build.
Is council approval needed in Bellville?
Check with the Bellville council before you buy. A dwelling needs approved plans under SANS 10400, and some small structures may count as minor building work. LSF building is covered by SANS 517. Ask each supplier what paperwork they supply with the building.
Do you build or deliver the homes yourselves?
