Frequently Asked Questions

We supply mabati (roofing sheets) and a full range of building materials: steel, timber, gypsum, pipes and plumbing accessories, doors and locks, solar and electrical products, nails and paint. You can browse everything in our shop.

Our box profile, corrugated and tile profile sheets come in gauge 30 and gauge 28, cut to any length from 1 metre to 6 metres, with a gloss or matte finish. Gauge 28 is thicker and stronger than gauge 30. Aluzinc comes in gauge 30 and 32, and stone coated tiles in gauge 26. Check each product page for its exact options, or ask our team.

Box profile and corrugated sheets are practical, cost-effective choices for homes, warehouses and commercial buildings. Tile profiles such as Brick Tile, Long Tile and Zentile give a classic tiled look for residential homes. Aluzinc is a low-cost option for stores, sheds and farm buildings. Stone coated tiles are our premium option for a high-end finish. If you are unsure, call or WhatsApp us and we will recommend a profile for your project.
