We have sold our property at Louisvale dorp. We have a valid COC, but afterwards, the buyer saw things he does not feel comfortable, request a new COC.

Hi there. I need someone to remove some densely packed palm trees and cut a branch off a tree outside my house. The area is about 8 square meters that needs to be cleared but looks like too much for one person to do. My address is 42 3rd Avenue Parktown North, corner 11th Avenue (the palms are in 11th Ave). Can you send someone tomorrow (Thursday 10/11) to check or give me some idea of the cost please. And if you want to call, please call on WhatsApp - it works better than cell here. Thanks
We want to extend an existing 3 phase connection with about 15 meters (and drill through 3 walls). We need to connect 3 normal ovens and stove top units (probably about 8kw) + 1 deck oven ( like this: https://www.absolutecateringequipment.co.za/product/single-deck-oven/) to this three-phase connection (in a separate circuit box). If we can add a meter to measure what is being used in this three-phase extension (in that circuit box), this would be good. We also need to know if this extension might require a higher amps circuit breaker on the existing connection.
