| The Thatching and Lapa information centre and service providers for South Africa |





Service A: Plans request.
Do you need plans drawn for you’re project?
Plans need to be signed of by a registered competent person or the plans will not be accepted when submitted to your municipality. We have our own inhouse draftsman and a registered architect, who can assist you with your plan, from drafting to the submission to the municipality for final approval.
Service B: Quote request – have plans
You’ve got municipality approved plans and need a quotation from a contractor for the building of a thatched roof or lapa. The National Building Regulations & Building Standards Act (No.103 of 1977) stipulates that no person may erect, alter, add to, or convert any building without the prior approval of the Local Authority.
No matter what your project entails, we provide turn-key building and project management solutions for any size project. Whether you’re building a small lapa or a large thatched roof, we have professional contractors with the expertise to provide you with the services you acquire at all times. Just complete the form with all the relevant detail and we will get back to you a.s.a.p
Service C: Request a Quantity Estimate on materials needed for your project. (Owner builders) Send an e-mail with name, contact detail and a copy of the plans, or a rough sketch with all relevant information of what your needs are, and we will get back to you. (PS. The service fee to be quoted on according to the complexity of the project.)
If you already have a list of all the poles required and need a quote from us to supply the thatching material and poles, please complete the Web Quote Form.xls and e-mail it to us with all your relevant detail eg. Name, Address, Contact detail and when needed.
