What gets put up around Rustenburg

Platinum mining shapes almost every prefab order in Rustenburg. Mine workers rent backyard rooms in Boitekong, Tlhabane and Phokeng, so landlords keep adding nutec and panel rooms on slabs, and contractors on the mines need site offices, change rooms and container camps around Marikana, Kroondal and Mooinooi. Families in Safari Gardens and Cashan want wendy houses and granny flats, and lodges toward the Pilanesberg ask for chalets. The black clay soils of the area swell and shrink with the rain, which can crack slabs and twist frames, so a proper foundation matters. Summer storms bring hail and lightning. Suppliers come from local yards or along the N4 from Pretoria, and council plans are still needed for rooms.
