I have a 5kw inverter installed and I am very happy with it. However, I wanted to set up SOLAR PANELS but the area is not suitable for panels. I would have to have something portable. The other draw back, I was told to install 4 panels for charging the battery!!! I have a thatch roof. Any advice would be appreciated. I am in Naboomspruit, 2 hours north of Pretoria.
I will need a brick wall (no plastering) to be built in the front/entrance to the property. I would like quote for both a 6 foot and an 8 foot to compare please. The length of the front is 28.m. I would also need a solid motorized gate (extending as far down to the ground as possible) also to be put up with the erection of the wall. The start of the project would only be late January, early February next year.
We have a unit that originally had a balcony (1.2m x 4.0m), that the previous owner closed up with hardwood floors. We want to return it into a balcony: remove the windows, return the balcony floor to the original concrete, and install a sliding door again. We already had the wooden floorboards removed, but we need a quote on: - Removal of screed (where the floorboards used to be) - Finishing of the drop / sliding door cill, from the inside of the apartment to the balcony floor (where the sliding door frame will be installed) - Finishing of the balcony floor (smooth concrete, as it was before, is OK) to make sure that any rain will flow to the original draining pipe. - Cleaning of screed/rubble. Please see the attachments. We need measurements and briefing with the sliding door installation company to happen tomorrow (Wed 13 Dec). But we are flexible with the job start time (either this week before Friday or in middle January) For now, we only want a quote on the screed removal / return to concrete flooring / preparation for the sliding door frame. Depending on the quality of the job, we will consider you for the removal of the windows and finishing of the exterior wall (once the sliding door is installed).
