Two Building Stocks on the Same Street
Green Point holds a lot of its original Victorian and Edwardian fabric — semis, cottages, and terraces, much of it subdivided — standing directly alongside modern apartment blocks and mixed-use developments. That means two quite different jobs, often on the same road: heritage-sensitive work on protected old buildings, and sectional title work for body corporates on the newer stock.
Both sit close enough to the bay that salt is a factor. Exposed steel, balustrades, flashings, and the reinforcing inside concrete all corrode faster here than they would a few kilometres inland, so the specification has to account for it. And with the stadium nearby, event-day road closures are a genuine consideration when programming deliveries.

Why Choose Us
Right Method for the Building in Front of Us
A Victorian semi and a 1990s block need genuinely different approaches — one wants breathable, period-appropriate repair and heritage approval, the other wants coastal coating systems and trustee sign-off. Green Point has both, and we work to whichever is actually in front of us rather than applying one method to everything.

Serving Green Point & Beyond
Building Along the Atlantic Seaboard
Green Point sits at the city end of the Atlantic Seaboard, and we work right along it — Mouille Point, Three Anchor Bay, Sea Point, Fresnaye, and the V&A Waterfront — as well as the neighbouring City Bowl and the wider Cape Town area. Wherever your property is, we bring the same standard of workmanship, clear communication, and reliable project management.
Frequently Asked Questions About Building in Green Point
Common questions from Green Point owners and trustees — covering heritage approvals, common property, salt exposure, short-let turnarounds, and quotes.
Do you work throughout Green Point?
Yes, across Green Point and the rest of the Atlantic Seaboard, including Mouille Point, Three Anchor Bay, Sea Point, and the V&A Waterfront, as well as the neighbouring City Bowl.
Our building is an old Victorian semi. Does heritage apply?
Very likely. Green Point retains a lot of its original Victorian and Edwardian fabric, and any structure older than 60 years is protected under the National Heritage Resources Act. Work affecting the street elevation, roofline, or footprint generally needs Heritage Western Cape input. We check this before you commission drawings, because it affects both what is possible and how long approval takes.
Do you work with body corporates and managing agents?
Yes. Green Point mixes period houses with a lot of sectional title, and a large share of our work here is common property repairs, waterproofing, and facade work for body corporates. We quote in a format that can be put to trustees.
How bad is the salt exposure this close to the bay?
Serious, though less severe than directly on the seafront at Mouille Point. Exposed steel, balustrades, gutters, flashings, and reinforcing in concrete all corrode faster here than they would inland, and coatings break down sooner. We specify coastal-grade systems and treat corrosion back to sound material rather than covering it.
We run the flat as a short let. Can you work between bookings?
Yes, and we do a lot of it. Short-let turnaround work has hard deadlines, so we scope it tightly, order materials before starting, and phase the work to fit the window you have. We will tell you honestly at quote stage if the scope does not fit the time available.
Is access difficult during events at the stadium?
It can be. Large events at Cape Town Stadium bring road closures and parking restrictions across Green Point, which affects deliveries and skip collection. We check the event calendar when programming work and schedule deliveries around it rather than losing a day at the cordon.
How do I get a quote?
