Strathaven Cluster Houses
These cluster homes are for the middle income earners and were constructed on vlei (expansive soils) ground. A lot of people always think that construction in expansive soils is more expensive. We have always demonstrated that a good design will reduce construction costs without necessarily compromising on strength and durability of the structure. This is one classic example were costs were shot down by a good special foundation design. Cluster homes built on expansive soils with special foundations. The structures are as solid as a rock.
House Majuru – Mandara
This is a beautiful double storey mansion well executed in the heart of the leafy up-market suburb of Mandara. Wide span concrete slabs make this home a unique style and an envy to watch.
House Matshiya Borrowdale
This is a spectacular single story house built on a steep sloping ground overlooking magnificent views to the eastern side. The house contains a lot of structural retaining walls as high as 4,5m. In order to reduce costs, the property was built with split levels matching the ground terrain. The retaining walls were designed as reinforced brick masonry walls making them extremely cheaper than if they were constructed as reinforced concrete walls. Stunning views of an immaculate landscaping outside captures the eye of any visitor or by-passer. The method of earth retaining brick walls was also employed following the ground terrain for the landscaping.
