Is it cheaper to build or buy a house in South Africa?
The short answer is that it is cheaper to buy an existing house in South Africa but every year less so.
I would like to get a quote for extending a house connecting to the current house plan. I do not want to change the model of the house. I would like to convert a bedroom into a garage. So basically constructors need to break the wall first and then build a garage. I want to extend the kitchen as well. Please send the quote via email.
I would like to get a building contractor to do the following for me: Build foundation and walls Put in a flat roof and the ceiling The plumbing part will do it myself. The house is about 25 square meter Please note this is an extension on the existing house. I will be using the initial house plan. Please feel free to contact me for more info.
We are first time home owners and need to get quotes to build our house. The ERF is in Village on sea (Estate in Mossel Bay). We would like the house to have an industrial finish inside with 50% of the walls plastered and painted,25% just plastered and sealed and the other 25% exposed brick(Bagging). The doors and windows we would like to be Charcoal Aluminum. Wooden Front door and White doors inside. The outside we would like to be plastered and painted and the natural stone work indicated on the plan we would like to be just exposed brick. The roof needs to have gutters to comply with the estates rules.
We have a current patio area but it is not ideal for a proper patio set and braai. We would like a complete patio with a built in braai section. We need a basin and storage space for wood ect. The patio will be divided in 2 areas; a patio set area to seat 6-8 people and then the braai area which can accommodate 4-6 people. The roof needs to be closed with a wooden finish. I am attaching current images of the patio as well as pinterest images as samples.
An existing house has 3 small bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a small kitchen and a lounge. We need to extend all 3 bedrooms, kitchen and lounge, add a dining room, a study, a laundry room, a small patio/Braai area and a double garage. The size of the house should at least be - square meters. Or build a new house on another piece of land: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lounge, dining, kitchen, study, laundry room, Patio/Braai area and a double garage. The size of the house should at least be to square meters. I really need a professional's advice here Please contact me via email, telephonically as well as Whatsapp I am not choosy. Thank you
I would like to get a quote for removing the old roof and then installing the new one. I would prefer to be tiles this time around. Please state the cost for labour plus the cost of material then I will decide whether to buy the material myself or what. Please send me the quote via Whatsapp. Thank you
The house is already constructed. There is no finishing, no tiling, no ceiling, no electrical wiring its basically empty it's just an empty box. There is a double garage door, but there is no motor, no windows no doors, no painting, and no plumbing. I need a building company to do the finishing. Please feel free to contact me for more info. Thank you
I have a flat corrugated roof on my outbuilding, I have issues where water is dripping down the walls when we have excessive rainfall, recently hire a pro who use rubberized waterproofing and did not do a good job, so I am a lost for words and who and what to trust. I am in need of a professional that will do a good job. Please feel free to contact me for more info. Thank you
Hi There, We are renovating and adding an extension to our residential property. The extension is estimated to be about 50m2. The build also includes a slab over the entrance. We are looking for a quote for the roofing, labour and materials included. Please see the document attached for further detail. Please send me an email at I'm in meetings most of the day and would also like to keep a record of communications through email. Thanks for the help!
I've already sourced 80% of the Material and only require labour. the following is required: - Foundation and brickwork - Plaster - Plumbing. The roof is asbestos. The project will be run by a strict timeline and the contractor need to run according to my payment schedule to avoid risk. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you
