Are you part of any building associations?
Yes in South Africa it is a law to be part of the NHBRC (National Home Builders Registration Council) if you are a home builder. The NHBRC is a home-building regulator body. We are also a member of the Master Builders Association
What type of warranty do you offer?
We work with the standard JBCC Building agreement. This contract is the most widely used in South Africa, and the only contract accepted by all the financial institutions in South Africa when applying for finance. The JBCC building agreement makes allowances for this.
