When you contact us we collect the details you give us, such as your name, phone number, email address, suburb or property address, and information and photos about the job.
Why we use it
- To reply to your enquiry and give you a quote
- To arrange, do and follow up on the work

We do not sell your information or use it for unrelated marketing.
Who we share it with
Only where needed to do the work or meet legal requirements, for example when submitting compliance or registration paperwork, or to suppliers for warranty claims.
How long we keep it
We keep your details only as long as needed for your enquiry, the work and any follow-ups. Invoices, certificates and tax records are kept for as long as South African law requires. We only use photos of a job on our website or social media with the customer's permission.
WhatsApp and this website
The enquiry form on this site does not store your details. It opens WhatsApp with your message filled in, and WhatsApp's own privacy policy applies to messages sent there. This website does not use advertising or tracking cookies.
