Thirteen years of Zincalume light steel frame construction in Cape Town's southern suburbs: hybrid LSF and concrete builds, American-style drywall finishing, and pricing that holds its own against anything local. Built by one in-house team, frame to final coat.
Light steel frame and hybrid construction, with American-style drywall finishing carried out in-house from frame to final coat.
Custom homes built on Zincalume LSF: corrosion-resistant, dimensionally precise, and faster to erect than traditional masonry.
Light steel framing paired with concrete columns and beams where the structure calls for it, giving you the strengths of both systems in one build.
American-style interior partitioning and finishing: taped joints, multiple skim coats, level-five smooth walls. Standard on every CABC build, and available as a finishing-only service.
Lightweight LSF extensions and second-storey additions that tie neatly into existing brick structures, with minimal disruption and no structural compromise.
Conventional brick and block work where the design calls for it: boundary walls, plinths, and full masonry sections built into or alongside your LSF structure by the same in-house team.
Water reticulation and plumbing installed as part of the build: supply lines, drainage, and fittings roughed in during framing and connected at handover, so nothing gets opened up twice.
Pre-build feasibility, structural input, and material selection guidance, with honest advice on whether LSF or a hybrid build is right for your project.
End-to-end management: design coordination, engineering sign-off, on-site delivery, and handover. One team, one accountable contact, all the trades in-house.
