7 mistakes most South Africans make when painting their homes
Avoid these mistakes when painting your home.
Need security gates to my front door and kitchen door. Last contractor botched it. Front door is arched at top and door is recessed, so security gate needs to have arch as well to be able to open fully or be not quite as tall as door itself or expand and swing? Hinges should be same side as door Should be simple to figure out. I need suggestions. Last one could not open far enough to get furniture out!! Had to cut it off!! Back door opens in. Security gate should have hinges same side as door to open fully. Not like previous contractor! Unfortunately I am not there, I am locked down in another country so must rely on a reliable person. The gates should be hot dipped please, not rusted steel. Maybe expanding aluminium gates - need advise. Thanks,
Approx 4m wide opening. Currently metal swing gates (gate rusty & motors both non functional) Looking for quotes on the following: 1. Replace current swing gates and motors with new metal / PVC /something. Would prefer a more modern design and would prefer more privacy / half half solid and slats. Also would prefer maintenance free option (don't want rust or to have to repaint). 2. Replace gate with sliding gate and sliding gate motor - is it even possible on our driveway - please get them to pop past and look
I just want a good cleanup and it must be monthly.Small garden area less than 50sm. I also want clearing/weeds growing between paving, there must be no lawns but small area outside the pavement between fence and street where weeds grow. NS> I have marked 50- but the actual garden is at the back of the property and is smaller than 50sm. Thank you Ivan
We share a driveway with our neighbors. We were thinking of having two complete systems. Each system will have its own intercom (with camera) and one side of the two sided swing gate. The gates will need to fit well together. There is a long driveway and the gate would be far away from each of the two houses.
Good day Kindly advise whether you could urgently assist with a quote on the following: sliding gate big enough for trucks to pass through, preferably in dark grey. with and without installation should that service be offered. Please also confirm lead time on the above. Kind regards Casey

It is an apartment block. The block consists of ten apartments. 5 one bed and 5 bachelor. I need the whole block painted in plascon micatex including trim. Please give me an idea of costs per Sqm (if that’s how you calculate it). This would be for a proper Pre,p, fill, and paint of all exterior surfaces and trim (wi Dow’s, eaves, gutters). There are two flats on ground, four on. Idle level and four at the next level. Please give me a vague idea of price on this info. If you would like more info please email me rather than call.
I need custom pedestrian gates made to replace wooden gates which are failing due to age. The main house is wood based so 2 gates need to be made with a post cemented on that side to ensure privacy. So sheet non rust metal outside cover is likely the best means. Also I need gates painted black. I also need one gate at the front of the house that has entrances. I want a padlock on each gate to secure the property when no tenants are occupying the property.
