Their work may be great but they have zero respect for the law as their vehicles travel through a weight restricted residential area that is clearly demarcated as no 5 TON vehicles allowed. Their drivers have a very bad confrontational attitude as well. The area in question is Erasmia in Centurion.

Okay so no complaint about the business, although i have called this afternoon about my experience last night and no one to assist. At around 21H30 i was on my way home from dinner, the BRANDED white single cab toyota hilux bakkie came flying past me (on a solid lane) proceeded in the oncoming lane almost causing a head on collision then still continued through a red robot. I have a feeling this driver was intoxicated. I really think the company must check who they let drive around in their vehicles.

The worst!!!! Cant I select 0 stars???? So I Ordered 6 cubes of gravel to be delivered Thursday morning.. so nobody delivered.. Said would be back Friday morning 08:00 sharp..get there late with 6 cubes of plaster sand! Sent back to get the right order, came there late Friday afternoon, just dumped the gravel on the sidewalk.. Got promosed by a guy called Gordon(worse than useless) that he will bring a bobcat to clear the mess, hence we need to pave that area on Monday. Ditched us again on Saturday, not answering my calls and even blocking them. after I had my full them there to assist them, after I was promosed the bobcat would be there at 7:30. No communication that they were just gonna drop us again. So 3 days lost due to labour in a 10 day project. Incompetence is one thing..but lies and broken promises..who can do business with that?
