We have a large property, so we decided to build a granny flat to rent out. A friend recommended I try Procompare to get into contact with some local house contractors. I had an overall excellent experience. The staff at Procompare was very helpful and friendly. I initially received only one quote, but they went out of their way to secure me more. The contractors I was in contact with were all extremely professional, and very good with communication.

Samuel is one of five house contractors who gave us a quote for the remodel of our house, and we could not be more pleased with our choice. Samuel is a professional in every sense of the word; great communication skills and really knows his business His workers were all respectful of our home and cleaned up after themselves. Our new home is beautiful, and we anticipate many years of enjoying it!

Fire pit destination. I need walls built to outline the fire pit. One wall must be a double wall up to waist height, and then two flower boxes on the corners of the 2nd wall, waist height. 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.
