Before you call
We install throughout the Western Cape from our warehouse in Capricorn Park, Muizenberg. Winelands, Overberg and West Coast jobs are programmed in blocks so the trip is worth your while.
A shower or splashback is normally in within 7 to 10 working days; balustrading and partitions usually 10 to 15. Curved, laminated and floor build-ups take longer because the detail has to be approved first.
Most can. We check what is behind the finish — slab depth, waterproofing, stringer thickness and anchor edge distance — before committing. If the substrate cannot take the load we detail a side fix or base shoe instead.
Toughened glass breaks into small blunt fragments rather than shards, and balustrades over a drop are specified laminated so the pane keeps standing in total failure. Pool applications follow the enclosure height requirement with no climbable horizontals.
Warm water, a squeegee and a soft cloth — no abrasive pads and no acid-based cleaners on stainless. Annually we check anchor torque, seal lines and silicon joints; hotels and body corporates can put that on contract.
