Concrete work in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university and wine town beneath the Stellenbosch and Simonsberg mountains, on decomposed granite and clay soils with varying bearing strength and water seepage on the slopes, so drainage and waterproofing under floors matter. Heritage rules affect external changes in the old town. Wine estates need cellar floors, tank plinths and hardstand, while student flats, security estates and Die Boord homes add suspended slabs, retaining walls and pool decks. Winter rain interrupts pours. Ready-mix is batched in the Boland and the Cape Town metro, so supply is good, but oak-lined streets, narrow gates and farm roads often limit truck access and make pump hire likely.
Typical suspended slabs requests in the area come from:
- Complexes and apartment blocks: repeated floor slabs for townhouses and apartment blocks, cast level by level over steel props
- Farms and smallholdings: a slab over a farm store, lodge unit or workshop, with trucks travelling a long way to site
- New houses: the first floor slab of a new double storey house, cast once the ground floor walls are up
- Extensions and backyard rooms: a new room or second storey slab over an existing house, often needing pump access through a tight yard
- Family homes: a first floor or balcony slab added to a family home, poured on props over existing walls
- Warehouses and factories: a heavy suspended slab for a mezzanine, loading deck or plant platform, designed by an engineer
