Steel Frame Houses in Centurion

Planning a steel frame house in Centurion? Say the floor area, how many bedrooms and storeys, whether your plans are approved, and the cladding you prefer outside. LSF builders who work in Centurion and across Gauteng will quote the frame, the build and the finishes.

The main steel frame houses page explains the options, the rules and the costs in more detail.

Rooms, cabins & buildings in Centurion: local notes

Light steel frame granny flats suit Centurion, where many estate rules ask for a plastered look and the frame is quick to erect once plans are passed. Office parks in Highveld and Hennopspark use prefab buildings and site offices for extra space or during construction. Schools around Kosmosdal and Olievenhoutbosch ask about prefab classrooms. On dolomite land, the base under any of these may need an engineer's sign off.

Sizes run from small units to double-storey homes. Before you agree to anything: lSF building is covered by SANS 517.

Building prefab in Centurion

Dolomite under parts of Centurion matters more than the colour of the cladding: on some stands the council wants a geotechnical report or an engineer's foundation design before any granny flat or cabin goes up, and a light prefab building does not escape that. Estates such as Irene, Midstream and Southdowns often limit what can stand in a garden, so many owners ask for a neat wendy house or a plastered steel frame unit that matches the house. Olievenhoutbosch has strong demand for backyard rooms. Suppliers in Lyttelton and near the N1 and N14 reach most streets quickly. The Hennops River valley gets frosty, and summer storms from the south west bring hail and lightning.
