Paving, Decks & Outdoor Areas
Driveways, paths and patios paved, and timber decks built for outdoor living through the long summer, with drainage planned for the winter rain.
Stellenbosch homes are lived in outdoors for much of the year, so decks, paving and patios are often first on the list, followed by tired kitchens and bathrooms. Our building team handles the work from the first site visit to the final clean, so send photos and your street for a written quote.

Our building team takes on these renovation jobs for Stellenbosch homes, rentals and businesses.
Driveways, paths and patios paved, and timber decks built for outdoor living through the long summer, with drainage planned for the winter rain.
Garden and boundary walls, small additions and repairs to cracked plaster, built and finished to match the rest of the house.
Flat roofs, balconies and walls sealed and painted as part of a renovation, so the new work stays dry.
Old kitchens stripped out and redone with new cupboards, counters, tiling and plumbing points, planned around how you cook and use the space.
Full bathroom renovations with new fittings, waterproofed showers and fresh tiling, from a small en-suite to the shared bathroom in a student house.
Shops, offices and guest accommodation in and around town refitted with partitions, new flooring, painting and kitchenettes, scheduled to limit disruption.
Stellenbosch has historic homes in the old centre, established family suburbs, newer estates and a large number of student houses and flats. Renovation work here often means updating an older home without losing its character, or making a rental tougher and easier to maintain. Properties in the historic core may fall under heritage controls, so changes to the outside can need extra approval.
For extensions, new walls or structural changes, plans usually need to be approved by the municipality before building starts, and we will tell you early whether your job is likely to need them. The long dry summers followed by wet winters also mean paving and foundations need a well-compacted base to avoid movement and cracks later.
We lay paving for driveways and patios, build timber decks and add low walls or steps around them. Drainage is planned in from the start so water does not pool against the house.
We strip out the old room, move plumbing points if needed, then fit, tile and finish the new space. Showers are waterproofed before tiling.
Brickwork, plastering, waterproofing and painting are all done by our own team, so a renovation does not stall while you wait for different contractors to arrive.
Not every renovation has to happen at once. Many homeowners start with the outdoor area before summer, then do the kitchen or bathroom later in the year. We can plan the work in phases and quote for each one, so you can spread the cost and still end up with one consistent result.
Our team also does handyman services in Stellenbosch, painting in Stellenbosch, flooring and tiling in Stellenbosch and fireplace, braai and chimney services.
