Good day, Our front and back yard are bricks currently. Front: We want to keep the drive-way and remove the rest of the bricks. On the left side of the front yard we want to do a parking spot of nice big pavers. The between the (2) driveways the left and right side one we wan to do a bit of gras with one nice tree. And a little plants. And some plants under the window in front. A walk way next to the right side drive way that carries all the way along side the house to the back of the garden. We don't want to over garden as this house was brought to fix up and re-sell. But the landscaping really needs a little boost. Back: We are extending the braai room about a meter back and 2 meters longer than it currently is. We want grass around the braai room with a nice wall way. We brough a beautiful rustic old fire pit. Under that we want some nice pavers. We have the chairs that goes with the fire pit as well. And then just a little plants at the back as well for a bit of charm. Please note: We just brought the house so the condition currently is not to great. We want to warm up the landscaping but do not want to over invest as this will be a fixer upper. But we want the first glaze at the property to be memorable. Thank you,
I had a new roof installed but i'm not sure if its done correctly and cant get hold of the guys now. Would like to know if i need to do anything or just wait until it breaks. There seems to be alot of movement on the new sheeting. Installed chromoadek but its not as firm as the old rotten one. Sheets seem to be drilled in firm at the scews. The other thing i'm concerned about is the headwall and sidewall flashing, it does not seem flush against the wall and they just put membrane and sealed it.
I own a property in Rustenburg, specifically in Waterval East, which I had undertaken to extend. Regrettably, the project encountered significant delays and issues caused by the previous contractor, including errors and omissions. Due to my work commitments in Limpopo, I was compelled to terminate the project prematurely. I am now determined to complete this endeavor by the end of the year and am actively seeking a contractor known for their integrity and expertise. It is with this purpose that I have reached out to you. I would like to inquire if your services extend to Rustenburg. If so, I would appreciate the opportunity to arrange a meeting at your earliest convenience. During this meeting, we can inspect the project site and discuss the feasibility of conducting a thorough takeoff and providing accurate estimates. The property in question is a single-story three-bedroom house with two bathrooms, a lounge, kitchen, and garage. I have since transformed the garage and a portion of the kitchen into a two-story structure. The core structure is in place, and the primary objectives are to rectify any previous errors and omissions to meet industry standards, as well as to complete final interior and exterior finishes, including landscaping.

We have a room built against a hill, which means that there is soil directly against half the height of one wall. When it rains, water in the soil seeps down and through the wall, damaging the carpet and the paintwork in the room. What is needed is comprehensive damp-proofing along the length of the wall, and down to foundation level.
