TDS Contractors has delivered facility works for both the University of Pretoria and Unisa, alongside commercial and residential work across Tshwane. Institutional campuses are unforgiving clients — the work has to be sequenced around occupied buildings, term times and heritage fabric — and that experience carries directly into commercial and residential projects.
Pretoria runs several degrees hotter than Johannesburg and sits in a basin that traps summer heat, pushing exposed roof surfaces to punishing temperatures. High surface temperatures accelerate the ageing of bituminous membranes and can soften inadequately specified torch-on systems, while the city's older building stock — much of it mid-century concrete — is prone to carbonation and reinforcement corrosion where water has been getting in for years. Waterproofing here often has to be paired with genuine concrete repair rather than applied over deteriorating substrate.
TDS Contractors works throughout Pretoria and the surrounding Gauteng region, and nationwide across South Africa. Work elsewhere in Africa is undertaken on request.
