These are the building and renovation projects George homeowners and businesses ask us about most.
Timber decks and paved areas built with drainage in mind, because George downpours can quickly flood a driveway or patio with no fall.
Boundary walls, braai areas, small extensions and re-plastering, with damp-proofing details done properly at the base of walls.
Leaking roofs, parapets and balconies sealed and the finished work painted, so a new renovation is protected from the start.
Kitchen layouts changed, new cupboards fitted, counters, tiling and plumbing points moved, with the kitchen out of action for as short a time as we can manage.
Old bathrooms stripped, showers waterproofed and re-tiled, and good ventilation added to keep mould under control in the George humidity.
Offices, consulting rooms and small shops in George refitted with new partitions, flooring, paint and ceilings, planned around your trading hours.
George receives rain in every season, often in heavy bursts off the Outeniqua Mountains. For building work that means drainage has to be designed in from the start: paving needs a proper fall, decks need airflow underneath, and walls need damp-proofing so moisture does not rise into new plaster. Getting these details wrong is what causes most problems a few years after a renovation.
People in George also spend a lot of time outdoors, so covered decks, braai areas and entertainment spaces are popular additions. Homes range from older houses in established suburbs to newer builds in the golf estates, where design guidelines usually apply to anything visible from outside.
We build timber decks on raised, ventilated supports, lay paving with proper drainage and put up braai areas and boundary walls in brick.
Kitchens and bathrooms are our most common renovations. We remove the old fittings, sort out plumbing points and waterproofing, then tile, fit and paint to finish.
For offices and shops we refit partitions, ceilings, floors and paintwork, working in phases where needed so the business can keep running.
Extensions and structural changes usually need approved plans from the George Municipality before work can start, and estates such as Fancourt and Kingswood have their own approval process on top of that. We will tell you early on if your project is likely to need plans, so the timeline is realistic.
Our team also does handyman services in George, painting in George, flooring and tiling in George and fireplace, braai and chimney services.

Extensions and structural changes generally need plans approved by the George Municipality. Kitchen and bathroom refits that do not change the structure usually do not, and we will advise you on your project.
Properly treated timber, laid with gaps between boards and plenty of airflow underneath, lasts best. Regular sealing also helps the deck cope with the rain.
