OUR SERVICES

Overview

As a principal contractor, we lead and manage every stage of your project—from planning to final handover. Whether you need maintenance, renovations, or a complete new build, our dedicated team ensures a seamless process, quality workmanship, and results you can rely on.

Construction Overview
Building Repairs & Maintenance

We handle all building repairs and maintenance issues with reliable guidance and workmanship focused on preventing future risks and unnecessary costs.

With decades of combined experience behind us, there are few building problems we have not already seen and put right. Our team is skilled at pinpointing the underlying cause rather than the symptom, and carrying out repairs that last.

Major & Minor Renovations

From kitchens and bathroom renovations to full home or office transformations, we deliver renovations of any scale.

Our in-house building team manages all structural and finishing work, while trusted specialist subcontractors handle areas such as cabinetry, electrical, and plumbing. You can expect a smooth, transparent process and a contractor who genuinely cares about delivering your vision.

New Build Services

We have worked alongside architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, project managers, and interior designers on numerous successful builds.

Our team is fully equipped to bring your building plans to life with precision and efficiency. New builds are where our workflow shines—offering a streamlined construction process and a final product you'll be proud to call your own.

Full Range of Services

We provide a full range of building and construction services, carried out with care, precision, and complete professionalism. Our in-house team handles all core building work, while trusted specialist subcontractors support us where required.

Built Around How You Have to Work

Commercial and industrial work lives or dies on the things around the building work: quoting per phase so trustees can approve it, scheduling after hours so tenants keep trading, supplying safety files and method statements before the crew arrives, and documenting everything properly when an insurer is involved.

We handle that side as seriously as the workmanship, on single call-outs and on annual maintenance contracts alike.

  • Body corporates & managing agents
  • Facilities managers
  • Commercial & industrial landlords
  • Office, retail & warehouse tenants
  • Estate & HOA trustees
  • Property investors

Planned & Scheduled Maintenance

Annual maintenance programmes for complexes, offices, and industrial premises, scheduled and costed so trustees and finance teams can budget ahead instead of reacting to failures.

Insurance & Claims Work

Storm damage, burst pipes, fire damage, and structural failure repaired to specification, with the reports, itemised quotes, and documentation assessors and insurers ask for.

Tenant Fit-Outs & Alterations

Office, retail, and warehouse fit-outs turned around between leases, including partitioning, ceilings, flooring, and making good on exit.

Common-Area Refurbishment

Lobbies, passages, stairwells, balconies, parking, and boundary walls upgraded and repainted with minimal disruption to residents and tenants.

Structural Repairs & Waterproofing

Crack stitching, underpinning, damp treatment, roof repairs, and waterproofing that deal with the cause rather than repeatedly patching the symptom.

Industrial Painting & Coatings

Warehouse, factory, and structural steel coating programmes specified for salt air, corrosion, and sites that cannot stop trading while we work.

Working in Cape Town's Industrial Areas

We work across the city's industrial precincts, and have dedicated pages covering the conditions and coating specifications each one demands:

We also supply and install the site furniture these properties run through — bollards, litter and recycling bins, and concrete planters — with the core-drilling, footings, making good and paintwork on the same quote.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from our Cape Town clients about renovation projects

Can you help with the design phase?

Yes. If all you want us to do is help plan and design your project, we will do that for you. We break a renovation down into clear components — layout, structure, finishes, and services — so you can see how the whole project fits together before any building starts.

How do I know where to start?

Start with a site visit. It is always best to resolve structural, roofing, damp or waterproofing problems first, before spending on new kitchens or bathrooms. We assess the property, discuss your goals, and advise on a sensible order of work.

What disruptions can I expect?

Every renovation causes some disruption, and how much depends on the scope of work. We plan each project carefully, protect the areas we are not working in, keep the site tidy, and discuss likely disruptions with you upfront so there are no surprises.

How do I budget for a renovation?

Be realistic about your budget and allow roughly an extra 20% for the unforeseen. Hidden water damage, structural problems, or delays can surface once walls open up, and a contingency means those do not derail the project. Our detailed quotes help you plan accurately.

How long will my renovation take?

It depends entirely on the size and scope of the project. A single bathroom or a maintenance repair may take a couple of weeks, while a full home renovation, extension, or new build runs over several months. You get a completion date in writing before we start, and if anything threatens that date you hear from us the same week — not at handover.

Are prices firm or could there be extra costs?

Our quotes are detailed and the prices in them are firm. Occasionally unexpected costs arise once work is underway — for example hidden damp or structural issues. If that happens we discuss the extra cost with you and get your approval before proceeding.

How do I choose a renovation contractor?

Look at experience, references, and past work. 68 Projects Building Co is an NHBRC registered builder founded in 2019, but our team brings decades of combined construction experience — co-owner Yusuf Boomgaard has worked in the industry for close to 50 years, and Nizaam Saban is a third-generation contractor. Ask any contractor for examples of completed projects and check that the workmanship matches what you want.
