7 things to consider when building a carport
Before building a carport, you need to know what you want and what you can afford.
I need: 1. Carport for 2 cars +- 8*7 sq - IBR 2. Kitchen porch/cover +-7*1.3 sq - Chromadek 3. Front porch/cover +- 7*1.5 sq - IBR with Wendy House Wood ceiling 4. I will prefer not to use poles but rather use support pillars build with face brick which I have available. This will match the face brick of my house
Hi I am looking for a carport that would be 8m long to fit two cars next to each other, please. I would like to hang roller/drop blind on each side of the carport. I have attached pictures of where I want the carport to be. It needs to be a solid roof and not a net. Is this something that you assist me with? Hope to hear from you soon. Charéll
Waterproofing to the balcony: Aluminum doors will be removed to the balcony Aluminum doors and frames will be wrapped in bubble wrap and stored in the garage for safekeeping until re-installation. All cement and waterproofing layers will be chopped up and removed off-site from the balcony. Rubble skip will be on-site and removed once it is filled. All existing waterproofing will be removed. mm Turn-ups will be chopped off in order to apply the waterproofing application onto the bricks. Existing outlets will be removed. New 63mm Flange outlets will be fitted to the parapet walls to allow water to discharge outside of the balcony. Screed-to-fall will be done to ensure water runs out of the outlets, and that there will be no water ponding in any areas. 50x75mm Angle will be fitted where the door will be fitted to prevent water from running back into the rooms. The waterproofing application will consist of the following: x2 Coats of Mapei-Lastic Mapei-tape to all turn-ups and corners and into the cavities. Mapei-net the flat surface x1 coat will be applied, followed by the Mapei-net and Mapei-tape being applied on top of the 1st coat. 2nd coat will be applied over all of the above-mentioned after 24 hours. Aluminum doors and frames will be re-fitted. Turn-ups and bands around the frames will be plastered to a smooth finish. Waterproofing application and plaster will be left for x3 days before the painting and tiling can commence. New tiles will be installed.
Front part of new house needs roof installed. I have some trusses left that was also used in back part of house that is already installed. Approximately m2 left to be done right away. I have all the tiles already. House is in Mooivallei Park Potch. I need a roofing carpenter to ensure the job is done right. Additional m2 roof will be needed on second level but not urgent right now.

We are in the process of purchasing a home and from the engineers inspection, it looks like we may need a roof replacement/repair as the clay tiles are old. The structure is still in tact. I'd like to get a quote to understand potential future costs in the next couple of years. I would prefer contact via email or whatsapp. Thanks!
Good morning Please would you quote me for building the carport attached. I've attached the following: 1. Picture of my house where the carport will be 2. My neighbour's carport (my carport should also be similar) 3. Drawings by architect (6m x 6m are the dimensions), they have been approved by municipality finally 4. The picture of an example where the 4th pillar needs to be slightly in (this will also be necessary in my carport, for easy exit out of the garage).
Please I would like to have a quotation of a building that has a floor and ceiling that is damaged because of an air handling unit that is placed on top of timber floor. The ceiling below that floor is also affected. Please I would like to have the following in the quotation: 1. An investigation on the cause and extend of the water damage on the floor/ceiling. 2. On top of the timber floor there is a torch-on waterproof. What is the rate of the waterproof when it is removed and when it is replaced with new. Thank you. Kind regards,
The roof leaks when it's raining but the exact points of leaks are uncertain since half of the house has an installed ceiling. The main objective is to find the exact leaking points and repair them and recommend any improvements on the roof. The plan area of the roof is approximately square metres. The style of roof is scotch. The location of the house is in Boschfontein, Nkomazi Local Municipality.

Reception room (3 walls and one with double window). Dining room (3 walls and 1 with window). Study room the size of a single garage (3 walls and 1 with window). Ceilings fir all those rooms. Ceiling needs some fixing. I need an estimate quote. Most of the walls are currently Grey and need to paint them cream or a homely color. Need quote to include the cost of the paint.
