About us

The team behind the work

Above Projects is a Cape Town construction and project management company for clients who care how their space is built.

Our background is in construction, ceilings and partitioning, and running sites as site agents, supervisors and project managers. We bring that experience to every job, from maintenance call-outs to full building projects.

Our name says it all: we aim to build above the bar. That means work that goes beyond the minimum, planned properly, finished neatly and handed over on time.

Mirrored sliding doors

The client wanted to add mirrors to her existing built-in cupboard. We fitted full-height mirror panels to both sliding doors, keeping the original frames and tracks, so the doors still glide smoothly and the bedroom feels brighter and larger.

Bella's Touch

FAQ

What to know before you start

Can't find your answer? Call or WhatsApp 072 900 6946.

How long will my project take?

It depends on the size of the job. Smaller maintenance jobs can take a day or two, while building work and renovations take longer. You'll get a programme with your quote, so you know the timeline before we start.

Are materials included in the quote?

That's up to you. We can quote labour only if you're supplying the materials, but we recommend supply and install, so one team is responsible for the materials, the workmanship and the finished result. Either way, the quote is itemised, so you can see exactly what is included.

Do you work on homes as well as businesses?

Yes. We take on commercial work for offices, studios, salons and other businesses, as well as residential maintenance and renovations.

Can you work around our trading hours?

Where it's needed, we plan noisy or disruptive work around your trading hours. Mention it in your quote request and we'll build it into the programme.

Which areas do you cover?

We're based in Cape Town and work across the city and surrounding areas. If your site is further out, send us the details and we'll let you know.
