Prefab and timber building in Benoni
Lakes and smallholdings set Benoni apart from the rest of the East Rand. Owners on plots in Putfontein, Benoni AH and Rynfield AH put up staff rooms, timber cottages and stables, and lakeside homes in Lakefield and Farrarmere ask for pool houses, garden offices and granny flats. Daveyton and Etwatwa have a large market for nutec rental rooms and second units on township stands. Crystal Park and Northmead mix both. Board yards and erectors work out of the industrial areas near the N12 and in Apex, and many also cover Brakpan. Summer storms on this part of the Highveld carry heavy hail and lightning, and frost gathers by the lakes on still winter mornings.
Typical wooden cabins requests in the area come from:
- Backyard landlords and families: a lined one room cabin with a shower let to a single tenant
- Homeowners: a garden studio, guest room or home office in timber at the bottom of the garden
- Farms and smallholdings: a weekend cabin or worker's cottage on a farm, put up without heavy machines
- Shops, offices and small businesses: a coffee kiosk, farm stall or treatment room built in natural timber
