Could you please let us know if you’re able to replace the door handles with the ones we already have in the office? If not, could you kindly provide a quote for replacing the two doors with matching handles, so that all the doors are consistent? Additionally, could you advise on the turnaround time for either replacing the doors or the door handles?
Hi. We would like to have an open plan kitchen, dining and living room, with a build in braai and space for a pooltable. It would be nice if the kitchen can have an island with a gashob. There should be a pantry, scullery, 4 garages, 4 rooms and at least 2 bathrooms. 1 bathroom must be en-suite for the main bedroom. I want my bakery to be part of the house, it should have a double door and 3m x 6m or 4m x 6m should be enough. Thank you

I have plans already drawn up and are currently in the council approval process. Therefore the project is just to build the walls underneath the metal structure
