Secunda notes on rooms, cabins & buildings

Embalenhle and Evander landlords build granny flats and rental rooms for shutdown crews, so ask a supplier for a row of rooms on one slab with separate doors. Plant and mine contractors use site offices, change rooms and ablution units on skids. Schools in the area sometimes add prefab classrooms. Steel frame houses suit owners who want a permanent extra unit that looks like a house.

Wooden Cabins here usually suit holiday cabins, guest rooms and studios. Made or supplied like this: treated pine frame clad in boards, or logs.

What gets put up around Secunda

Shutdown season at the big fuel plant brings thousands of contract workers to Secunda, and many of them rent a room in Embalenhle, Evander or Kinross. That is why backyard rental rooms, built quickly in nutec or panels on a slab, are the main prefab order here. Trichardt and the leafier streets of Secunda itself add wendy houses, garden offices and granny flats. Contractors on the plant and the nearby mines want site offices, change rooms and container stores that can be moved later. Suppliers come from local yards or along the N17 from Gauteng. Hail, lightning and cold winter nights are the weather to plan for, and rooms for tenants still need approved plans and a wiring certificate.
