Building a house in Bondo: what to know

Bondo sits in Kenya's Western & Nyanza region, with a warm, wet climate with some of the highest rainfall and lightning activity in Kenya. That shapes the design: kisii, Kakamega, Nyamira and Vihiga see a lot of lightning, so we include a lightning protection (earthing) layout for taller and larger buildings.

Heavy rain calls for generous roof overhangs, gutters sized for storms, and good site drainage, especially on hilly Kisii and Nyamira plots.

Local builders in and around Bondo commonly work with locally burnt clay bricks, concrete block, and pitched or flat concrete roofs. At the site visit we check your plot's size, slope, soil, access road, power and water connection points, and neighbouring buildings, so the design fits your site and passes the Siaya County approval the first time.
