We live in a complex. The bathroom door frame is rusting and needs refurbishment. What may be costly though is that the frame is a junction frame. There is a room with door frame aligned next to the bathroom frame. This job may need cutting into cement and brick as it's a metal frame. This then effects the tiling as well. The rust may be deep and a patchwork job may not work. Many thanks
Good day, I hope you're doing well. I have a built-in electric stovetop with solid plates that has suddenly stopped working. I'm unsure whether the issue lies with the oven elements or the plates. Additionally, I have a socket outlet that emits a buzzing sound. Could you provide an estimate for the cost of repairs? Looking forward to your response. Warmest regards,
Request for Electrical Connection Installation Hello I hope you're well. I’m looking to establish a new electrical connection for my home office, which I’ve recently built in the outer area of my property. The nearest electrical connection is approximately 2 meters from the garage. If the connection can be made via this route, I would also need a hole drilled through the garage wall to access the power. Specifically, I would require the installation of a wall plug and wiring for a light in the office. Please let me know if you're able to complete this work neatly, and provide a quote for the installation. If possible, I would like to have the work completed by 7 March . To summarize: 1. Drill to establish the electrical connection to the garage, 2. Install a wall plug, 3. Install wiring for lights. Additionally, please confirm that you are licensed and insured for this type of work. Thank you in advance,
I’m not sure how to explain it, but I want to renovate my grandmother’s house. It was originally a four-room township house and was extended in . My goal is to improve its functionality and flow by making the kitchen and lounge open plan, fixing the roof, and demolishing the en-suite in the main bedroom. The hallway layout doesn’t make sense, so I’d like to rework it, as well as completely redo the main bathroom. Additionally, I need to address structural issues like the leaking roof, flatten the plaster for a smoother finish, install a stacking door in the lounge, and add a new window in the main bedroom. I also want to replace all windows and doors—both inside and outside—to give the house a cleaner, more modern look. Overall, I just want to make the house neater, more practical, and improve its overall flow.
Take down tiling, build a wall (to close the shower), break the shower walls, build shelves, move the drainage and bath, add new shower, new vanity, new tiling, possibly new flooring. One wall has wardrobe cupboards that need to be removed. New cabinets to be built into the en suite bedroom. Attached plan is not necessarily to scale.
Good day, Hope you are doing well :-) I have a small Wendy house that we built in Retief, Despatch. I need a quote to get the Wendy house supplied with electricity. It is a 2 bedroom, Open plan kitchen/living area. The entire house is 5m x 7m so not very big. I don't need much, only basics: 6 x Wall Plugs 5 x Indoor lights 1x Outdoor light The following items will run on the electricity: Kitchen 1 x 2 plate stove 1 x Kettle 1 x Fridge 1 x Washing Machine 1 x Microwave Rest of house 2 x Fans 2 x Tvs 1 x Hair dryer 1 x Streighter Charging units like phones etc. That's it, I want the most affordable options please. Don't need anything fancy. The Wendy house is built next to the main house. The main house DB Board is about 18m from the Wendy house just to give you an idea. If you can perhaps assist me with an estimate/quote? I will need this done between 26 March - 28 March if possible. I would also need a Certificate, very important

I need a quote on installation of three overhead fans in bedrooms and one more in a lounge area. The three bedrooms do not have a single overhead light but four small recessed lights. The lounge area already has an overhead light that can be removed and the fan fixed to the wooden beam. Thank you, .
