Building and Renovations for Table View Properties

Table View grew quickly from the eighties onwards, and much of the suburb is family houses and townhouse complexes from that period. Plenty of these homes still have their original kitchens and bathrooms, small enclosed patios and tired paving, so renovations here are often about modernising rather than starting from scratch.

The coast shapes how we build. The ground is sandy, so paving and new slabs need a properly compacted base. The summer south-easter makes sheltered outdoor areas valuable, and winter rain off the sea tests every parapet and flat roof. Extensions and structural changes need plans approved by the City of Cape Town, and complexes may also need trustee approval.

Renovation Services Our Team Offers in Table View

Kitchens and bathrooms

We strip out old kitchens and bathrooms, move plumbing points if needed, and rebuild with new tiling, cupboards and fittings. Showers are waterproofed before tiling.

Paving and outdoor living

We lay driveways and patios, build decks and low walls and create braai areas that are more sheltered from the wind.

Walls, roofs and finishing

Brickwork, plastering, waterproofing and painting are done by our own team, so the project keeps moving without waiting for other trades.

Renovating in a Table View Complex

If you own a unit in a Table View complex, check the conduct rules before planning a renovation. Changes to the outside, such as a new patio cover or a different window, usually need trustee approval, and there may be rules about working hours and noise. We can work with your managing agent so the renovation runs smoothly for you and your neighbours.

Our team also does handyman services in Table View, painting in Table View, flooring and tiling in Table View and fireplace, braai and chimney services.

Our Renovation Process in Table View

  1. Reach out. Send photos, a description of the project and your street or complex in Table View.
  2. Site visit and quote. We visit, measure and send a written quote with each part of the work listed.
  3. Planning. We agree dates, plans and deliveries. In complexes we arrange gate access, skip placement and working hours with the managing agent, and on freestanding homes we plan deliveries so driveways are not blocked.
  4. Building. We work through each stage, keep you updated and raise any surprises before carrying on.
  5. Completion. Once the last stage is done we clear away rubble, inspect the work together and finish off any small snags you pick up.

What Affects the Cost of Building and Renovations in Table View

  • Size of the project. A bathroom refresh costs much less than reworking a kitchen layout or adding a room.
  • Approvals. Structural work needs plans from the City of Cape Town, and complexes may need trustee approval.
  • Ground preparation. Sandy soil may need extra compaction under paving and slabs.
  • Finishes. Tiles, cupboards and fittings vary widely, and you can choose or supply your own.

Table View Building & Renovation FAQs

Do you do building and renovation work in Table View?

Yes. Our team renovates kitchens and bathrooms, lays paving, builds decks and does brickwork, plastering and waterproofing in Table View. Send photos and we will arrange a site visit.

Do I need plans for a renovation in Table View?

Extensions and structural changes need plans approved by the City of Cape Town. Updating a kitchen or bathroom without moving walls usually does not, and we will tell you early on.

Can I renovate my unit in a Table View complex?

Yes, but check the complex rules first. Outside changes usually need trustee approval, and there may be set working hours. We can coordinate with your managing agent.

Can you build a patio sheltered from the wind in Table View?

Yes. We can plan a patio or braai area with walls or screens placed to block the worst of the south-easter. We look at your garden and suggest what will work best.

Does paving need special preparation on Table View's sandy ground?

Yes. Sandy soil must be well compacted with a proper base before paving, or the pavers will sink and move. We include this in our quote.

Do you also work in Parklands, Milnerton and Bloubergstrand?

Yes. Our building team works along the West Coast suburbs, including Parklands, Milnerton, Bloubergstrand and Sunningdale. Send your address and we will confirm.
