I turned to Procompare to get quotes for the remodel and extension of our current braai room. I got quotes from 6 building construction companies, as promised. The differences between the quoted prices were considerable, but two were really affordable. We were really happy with our choice.

We bought an old house and wanted to renovate and add more space. We found the building construction company through procompare. You get quotes from several contractors, so you can compare. I was surprised how different they actually were, even though we provided the same specs to all. All in all, a very good service.

My husband and I got 4 very competitive quotes from building construction companies through Procompare, and ended up choosing the most affordable. We had some problems during the build, so our house was finished a little later than initially agreed, but the contractor kept us up to date at all times and was always available for additional questions. His team was professional and correct.
Trusted professionals. All of our Pros are verified.
Fast service.

A window will go into the third wall, which will be about 3m high. Then, I need a wall built at the end of our patio with a door in it. I am looking for reasonable prices as we will supply the bricks and cement.
I have a shack that I would like you to fix in Durban, KwaMashu. The shack is leaning on one side and I would like you to straighten it. I would also like you to change the roof and install new sheets of corrugated iron (7 sheets), a burglar gate on the door and on the small window. I request you to take the old sheets of corrugated iron with you. Some planks are falling off, please hammer them back into place and male the whole shack straight and stable with no holes. We are not rebuilding it, rather fixing it. The process should therefore take a couple of hours.
