Before we break ground
Good questions.
Clearer next steps.
A little clarity now makes the first conversation more useful.
Can I enquire before I have drawings?
Yes. Tell us what you want to build, the location and what information you already have. An early enquiry helps identify the next planning steps. Detailed pricing depends on an agreed scope and sufficient project information.
How much will my construction project cost?
Cost depends on the size, site conditions, specifications, access, specialist work and programme. Share an indicative budget if you have one. The team needs to review the brief and supporting information before providing a project-specific quotation.
Can you work around an operating business?
Tell us about trading hours, tenant access, shutdown windows, noise restrictions and safety requirements. These constraints should form part of the phasing discussion before work is agreed.
What should I send with my enquiry?
A short description, the suburb or site location, approximate size, intended use, desired timing and your project stage. If available, include drawings, photos and a scope or bill of quantities through WhatsApp or email.
Can I request registration and tender documents?
Yes. Tell the team which current registrations, insurance or procurement documents your project requires. Availability and suitability must be confirmed for the particular contract.
Does completing the brief book a site visit?
No. It starts a conversation. The team will review the information and confirm the appropriate next step, availability and any arrangements for a site meeting.
Do you still handle residential work and renovations?
Yes. Residential construction, extensions, renovations and the wider service offering remain part of Gebodo’s capabilities. Choose the relevant project type so your enquiry can be directed correctly.
