Do you offer plumbing work?

Quotes & project preparation

How do I request a construction or renovation quote?

Use the website enquiry form, call 073 984 7718 or email hello@unibuilders.co.za. Include your name, project area and a description of the construction, renovation or repair work you have in mind.

What information should I prepare for a quote?

Prepare the property location, a short description of the work, approximate dimensions and any drawings or specifications you already have. Mention access restrictions and the project timing you would like to discuss.

Can I send photographs or building plans?

Yes. Email supporting photographs, plans and measurements to hello@unibuilders.co.za when discussing your enquiry. Avoid sending information unrelated to the project.

How much will my building project cost?

Cost depends on the agreed scope, site conditions, materials, access and specialist work. A project-specific quote is more useful than a generic rate; discuss what is included and any allowances before agreeing the work.

Planning, scope & communication

Can you work with my existing building plans?

We can review your existing plans and discuss the construction work around them. Confirm any professional design work, approvals and responsibilities that apply to your project before work begins.

Can you help with estimates and bills of quantities?

Yes. Estimates and bills of quantities can be discussed as part of project planning. The available drawings, specifications and level of detail will affect the scope of this work.

How long does a renovation or new build take?

Timing depends on the work, site conditions, materials, approvals and specialist coordination. Discuss a proposed programme and how changes will be handled rather than relying on a fixed general timescale.

How will we communicate during the build?

Agree a communication plan with the team before the project begins. Regular site conversations can be used to review progress, decisions and any changes to the agreed work.

What should be confirmed before building work starts?
