About this service
One team for your whole build.
Building a new home is a big step, and it helps to have one team you can trust from start to finish. We take care of the full build: the plans, the council approval, the foundations, the walls and roof, and all the finishes.
Riaan is on site throughout, so you always know how your build is going. You get a detailed written quote before we start, and if anything needs to change along the way, we discuss it with you first.
What it involves
What we take care of

Finishes and handover
Painting and final finishes, then a walk-through together before you get the keys.

Why build new
Is a new build right for you?
Building gives you a home that fits the way you live, instead of making do. It is worth talking to us if:
- You have a stand and want a home designed around your family
- You can’t find a house for sale that has what you need
- You want the layout, size and finishes to be your choice
- You want everything built new, to approved plans
- You want one team handling everything from plans to handover

How long does it take to build a house?
It depends on the size of the house, the design and the weather. We give you a realistic timeline with your quote. [Add a typical timeline, for example for a 3-bedroom house.]
Can you help with building plans?
Yes. We can arrange the drawings and help you get them approved by the municipality before building starts.
Do I need to be on site during the build?
No. We manage the site day to day and keep you updated. You are welcome to visit, and we arrange regular check-ins with you.
Which areas do you build in?
