My Australian style house is about 32 km outside Thabazimbi in the Waterberge and need urgent reparations. The fibreglass panels are getting loose at the joints. It seems as if the compressed wooden boards under beneath the fibreglass panels did get wet and swell and push the panels away from each other.A small area inside next to the window showed water damage. The fibreglass panel which seal the wooden board of one of the windows was also missing. Opening of fibreglass panels, replacing of wooden boards, flashing and reassembling of panels outside and repairing water damage inside is required

Good day, I trust that you are well. I would like assistance with renovating two bathrooms. One is small and the other a bit bigger. I’m not sure now the square meters are calculated but if I can use the tiles since they’re standard tiles, I’d say that one is about m^2 and the other m^2. They both have bathtub, shower and toilet. I’d like to keep it that way with a different look which can also make the bathroom look more spacious and peaceful. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely,

Good morning. I would like to obtain a quote for the removal of a wall. An engineer has already provided approval for this work. The Council has misplaced the original plans, so they will be redrawn over the next few weeks. Additional plans must then be submitted to the Council and our Body Corporate. I am looking to install new flooring once the wall is removed, and I plan to reconfigure the kitchen and remodel three bathrooms. There will be no changes to the plumbing.

Looking to build a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, double garage Nutec house on a plot in Langvlei Dunes, Between Sedgefield and Wilderness. Also want a patio, all rooms to have built in cupboards, kitchen cupboards, bathrooms to be fully equipped etc. Would like modern finishes but all in all the build doesnt have to be over the top as we're working on a budget. Depending on price of the first build / main house as described above, we also need a 2nd smaller build, 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom and 1 garage or carport on the same plot. Would like a price estimate for the main 3 bedroom and a price if we do both via your business.
