Local knowledge of Boksburg homes
We see a lot of townhouse complexes and family homes in Sunward Park, Parkrand and Beyers Park, where space is tight and work needs to be tidy. Common requests include mounting TVs and shelves safely on brick or drywall, assembling flat-pack furniture, fitting blinds and curtain rails, and small renovation jobs before a property goes on the market. For sellers we can work through a buyer's inspection list quickly so your transfer isn't held up.

Practical tips for Boksburg homeowners
- Always anchor tall furniture like wardrobes and bookshelves to the wall, especially in homes with small children.
- Drywall needs the right fixings for heavy items. Don't hang a TV on plasterboard plugs; ask for proper drywall anchors or mounting onto studs.
- Selling? Fix the small visible things first: loose handles, chipped paint and dripping taps. They shape a buyer's first impression.
