We always dreamt about building our own house. But when the moment finally came, even the thought of building a house from scratch was more than overwhelming. And all those horror stories about cawboy contractors... It really makes you think twice. But then my friend recommended using one of those "compare quotes" services. I came across Procompare online. I thought, I'll give it a go. I was surprised at how quickly builders contacted me. And on top of that they were all locals. After talking to them and some word-of-mouth recommendation, we went with Mr Mpho. So far, all is going smooth and according to plans. There were some bumps on the way, but Mpho handled it all very professionally, so we are completely confident he will continue in this way until the end. All I can recommend is get several quotes and go for a quality contractor.

Sizane and his crew extended our house. They did a great job, great value for money and a top quality finish. All works conducted in good spirit and all the team were all very polite and helpful. I can only recommend their services.
