Request to quote for the following: Strong foundation, purchase mixed concrete from a mobile mixer Wall, door and window frames Plumbing, electrical installation. I will compare options where a builder brings his own material or provides me with bill of quantities and I purchase the material. Builder must furnish proof of registration for professional bodies
Indeed firstly a wall around my house and to take out the old fence. Then , secondly I need a small rondaval house with thatch roofing and a newly developed house for the finish off just next to the kids small RDP. My yard is quite huge and would need measurements and plans for the outcome of my idea. We also need a garage to build and it needs to be part of the main house and we need to be able to access it on a rainy day through the main house easily. A pool would be a bonus as it's really hot here in Hammanskraal, DanHouse.
