About
In 1986, my journey began with house construction for Goede Brothers in Brakpan,
following my departure as a Cost Accountant in Mandini, Zululand, Natal. I subsequently built homes for Shachat in Pretoria and at the airforce base in Braambos, Louis Trichardt.
In 1990, I initiated work on Boksburg Prison with Stocks & Stocks, later focusing on
Hammanskraal's brickwork for The Carousel. This led to projects at Lost City and Sun City,
followed by mine houses in Pietersburg for Goldstein Housing.
My path extended to significant landmarks, including Linmed Hospital and Kokanje Hotel in Benoni.
Over the years, my focus shifted to predominantly townhouses, collaborating with Van Acht,
Goldstein Housing, and Stocks Housing.
For around 7 years, I built luxurious homes for Frederico de Gregorio of Kwandisa Construction,
alongside renowned architect Aurelio Cimato of Cimato Moroldo Architects. A notable privilege was constructing Aurelio's own residence.
I contributed to Steyn City's primary school, leading to projects like the pre-school and Aquatic Centre. Later ventures involved flats in Steyn City, including the substantial City Centre brickwork contract.
Years later, I participated in projects like flats in Brooklyn and Midrand. I also played a role in constructing the final 2000 houses in Cosmo City, where we are currently engaged in nine blocks of four-storey flats.
My expertise lies in labor-intensive brickwork, plastering, and rib and block concrete slabs.
Furthermore, I've undertaken personal endeavors, including constructing my own houses and
a restaurant in Gansbaai, Western Cape
My marriage to Louise since 1979 stands strong, with two exceptional children—Lelani and Stephan—
and four lovely grandchildren. My son joins me on construction sites,
and my daughter thrives as an estate agent.
Word-of-mouth, fueled my success. Consistent projects kept us engaged, earning praise for
quality and commitment.
Guided by nurturing potential, I train and empower. My main foreman's journey—from
laborer in 1988 to skilled leader—showcases growth.
My story reflects resilience, family values, and dedication to craft, shaped by years of hard work
and belief in growth.
