We were looking for an affordable contractor for our house extension (we wanted to add a master bedroom that is ensuite with walk in closet and an double garage in front and a dining room with a living room, a bigger and open kitchen). Procompare helped us find an architect and a building contractor for the project. All I can say is: great service!

Procompare helped us find a building contractor for our house extension. Through them we came in contact with a local builder. From our first meeting with him, we felt confident that Samuel understood what we were hoping to achieve.

When we decided to have our house extended, we were told to be very careful when choosing a builder. There seems to be a practice that they start a project then they don't turn up because they have too many jobs at once, or leave a complete mess. When browsing reviews of companies online, we also submitted a request on Procompare, and luckily got a quote from the same local contractor we were already looking at. We ended choosing him and are very pleased with the end result and the whole experience

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.
