Oak is a durable and sustainable material, known for its strength and longevity, making it an environmentally-friendly choice that not only reduces carbon footprints but also enhances the value of your building.
Bruce and his team were amazing throughout the entire build, Bruce has done two of my properties now and If I get the chance to do another few he'd be the first I call! Bruce came up with amazing ideas throughout each build which would either help with cost containment or a better design than previously thought of. I couldn't recommend him more.
We couldn't have built our house without Bruce. He shared the same passion and motivation as we did when it came to the build.
One of the best aspects of Bruce and his team was their ability to problem solve. We sat down together and came up with solutions.
We are so proud of what we achieved with the house build and will forever appreciate the work Bruce put into our Home.
We are happy for any potential clients to come and see his work for themselves.
We are really pleased with the outdoor kitchen and BBQ area that Bruce designed and built for us. We are especially happy with the railway sleeper bar area he hand built as it's a focal point when entertaining guests. We are glad we chose a South African to do this as he is experienced in outdoor cooking and knew exactly what was needed to make the best use of the space.
It's hard to know who to trust when you are doing this work for the first time. Bruce's advice was instrumental to me improving the layout of my home. It's now much better than the architects had planned! I heard other people have problems with their builders but everything went so smoothly. I really love it.
A large proportion of the exteriors of our house needed repair due to poor workmanship from the original builder. We met Bruce after speaking with a few other contractors which left us overall unconvinced. Bruce instead, was immediately responsive and provided us with a clear solution to the repairs and an itemised budget which we considered fair and honest. Work started on time and were carried out seamlessly, while Bruce remained in communication with us for regular progress updates during the entire project. We are very happy with both the quality of the work done and Bruce's professionalism. Thanks so much.
I was in a sticky situation with previous builders who had not completed the work I had paid for. Bruce came to the rescue and has been puting a multitude of disasters right for me and even helping me appeal against the previous builders. He is currently putting my house right and it's such a relief to see everything come together. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bruce.
