What to know locally in George
Frequent rain means footings, retractable pits and speed humps all need good drainage, and wet ground can slow installation. Sandy soil at the coast needs wider footings than the firmer ground in town. Guardrails along the N2 and mountain passes are a road authority matter, but farms and estates order their own for embankments and bridges. Cones and barriers are in demand for road works on the N2.
George: the properties, the ground and the installers
George is the business centre of the Garden Route, set on a plateau below the Outeniqua Mountains and a few kilometres from the sea. York Street and the CBD have shops, offices and municipal buildings, the airport brings car rental parking to manage, and the industrial areas near Pacaltsdorp hold sawmills, depots and workshops. Rain falls through most of the year here, so drainage and rust are bigger concerns than in drier towns. Wilderness and Herold's Bay sit right on the coast with salt air and sandy soil, while estates and golf courses around the town want boom gates and decorative posts. Installers serve the whole Garden Route, and heavy units often travel long distances along the N2.
