Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a new home build usually take?
Every project is different. The timeline depends on the home's size, design, weather, and how quickly decisions are made. After seeing your plans, we can give a clear estimate for your specific build.
Do you help with approvals or plans?
We don’t replace your architect, but we can guide you through the approval process and work with your professional team to ensure everything is done correctly and on time.
Can you work with my chosen architect or engineer?
Yes, absolutely. We work with any architect or engineer you choose and communicate with them throughout the project to keep everything aligned.
Do you build on challenging or sloped sites?
Yes. We have experience with sloped land, coastal soil conditions, and complicated site layouts. We can advise on practical solutions before the build starts.
What size or budget of home do you take on?
We focus on mid- to high-end residential homes. We are best suited for clients who want quality, strong project management, and premium finishes.
How often will I get updates during the build?
You will receive regular updates, including cost reports, progress notes, and site feedback. We keep communication open from start to finish.
Do you allow clients to make changes during the build?
Yes. Changes can be made through a formal Variation Order (VO) process to keep costs and timelines clear and documented.
What makes your builds different from other construction companies?
Every project is personally managed by Rob, the owner. He is on site, checking quality, guiding teams, and solving issues before they become problems. You get premium workmanship with honest, steady communication.
Do you help with finishes and material choices?
Yes. We guide you through options and help ensure your selections fit your budget and design. We also work with your architect or designer on finishes that match the vision.
What happens if the weather delays the build?
Weather delays can happen, especially during Cape Town’s rainy season. We plan around these risks, adjust schedules, and keep you updated so the project stays on track.
