Home / What we do
From the trench
to the last tile.
Five areas of work, all run by TMS. Take us on for the full build or for the single trade you need done properly.
New builds, extensions & alterations
Complete residential and commercial structures — from setting out and foundations through to the roof going on. We also open up existing buildings for extensions, new door and window openings, and internal reconfiguration.
- Setting out, foundations and surface beds
- Structural brickwork, lintels and roof structure
- Extensions, granny flats, garages and outbuildings
- Knock-throughs, new openings and internal walls
- New homes
- Additions
- Garages
- Shopfitting shells
- Alterations
Bricklaying, boundary walls & retaining
Face brick that still looks straight in ten years, or plaster-grade walls built to be finished. We handle the full wall — footing, brickwork, pillars, capping and the paving or drainage around it.
- Face brick and plaster-grade boundary walls
- Brick pillars, gate posts and capping
- Retaining walls on sloped and cut sites
- Precast repairs, garden walls and braai structures

New roofs, restoration & waterproofing
Coastal weather is hard on a roof. We install new tile and sheeting roofs, and bring tired ones back — cleaned down, repaired, primed and coated so the next decade is quieter than the last.
- New roof structures, sheeting and tile roofs
- Roof restoration: clean, repair, prime and coat
- Leak tracing, ridge and valley repairs, gutters
- Waterproofing to parapets, flat roofs and joints
- IBR & corrugated
- Concrete tile
- Recoating
- Leak repairs
- Gutters
Plastering, painting & exterior finishes
The layer everyone actually sees. Flat, straight plaster inside and out, cracks cut out and repaired rather than painted over, and paint systems chosen for salt air and sun.
- Interior and exterior plaster, skimming and screeds
- Crack repair, patching and surface preparation
- Interior and exterior painting, roofs and steelwork
- Stairs, stoeps and finished exterior detail
- Plaster
- Skimming
- Crack repair
- Exterior paint
- Screeds
Tiling, bathrooms & interior finishes
Tiling laid on levelling clips so the finish is flat under the light, joints line through, and cuts land where they should. We do full bathroom installations, including the wall cladding and fittings that make the room.
- Floor and wall tiling, including large format
- Full bathroom and guest cloakroom installations
- Feature cladding, niches and shower detailing
- Patios, decks and outdoor tiled surfaces
- Large format
- Bathrooms
- Feature walls
- Patios
- Grouting
