Hi I please need quotes on rewiring a 3 bedroom house and getting the db board up to code. The house was ransacked years ago and not only was the electricity meter stolen, but a lot of the wiring also. The house however is still connected to the electricity grid, but is apparently not up to standard in order to have a new meter installed. Thanks
I have old metal gates that my late dad put in years ago. I had palisades put in to heighten the walls, to make the property more secure. Now I need the gates heightened by joining them to a metal base that must be made. I will accept advice on best method and materials to use. I also want to convert these gates from swing gates to folding sliding gates placed onto a metal rail. I attach a rough schematic. I attach pictures taken of the palisade installation. It can be see that the gates need a base to be made to heighten per schematic attached. Please advise.
We have a very old 3 bedroom house that has not been lived in for 40 years. It's a square meter house. The house's electricity runs off a super old diesel generator. We basically want the entire house's electrical to be redone and then put it onto solar power and off grid. Send me a WhatsApp and I can send photos and videos.
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. We need urgently someone to go and have a look at all things on the current COC, and release a new one. It's very urgent and I will appreciate feedback as soon as possible, thank you.
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.
