Send photographs, measurements and the property location.
Key Details for Gauteng
Define the scope
Report active leaks, loose ceilings or exposed services.
Confirm the finish

Work to Include in the Quotation

Condition and compatibility

Materials and access
Report active leaks, loose ceilings or exposed services. Agree on the patch, joint finish and painting coverage.
Completion checks
Ask whether temporary protection or permanent repair is required. Allow the selected compounds and paint products to dry before the next stage.
