General contracting and renovation work in South Africa spans everything from small home upgrades to full extensions and new builds, usually requiring NHBRC registration for structural work and coordination across several subcontracted trades. With projects running months and tens or hundreds of thousands of rand, structuring the quote into clear phases and stage payments protects both the builder's cash flow and the client's budget. Sending an itemised quote by WhatsApp straight after the site visit, with a PayShap deposit request attached, gets the project moving before the client gets a second opinion.

Everything a general contractor needs in one place
Questions about Prummo for general contractors?
Yes. Dictate phase by phase: 'Foundations, R42,000. Brickwork and structure, R68,000. Roof structure, R55,000.' Prummo lists each phase with its own price, so the client sees exactly where the money goes across the build.
Add it as a line: 'NHBRC registered builder, enrolment and inspections included.' Homeowners doing structural work know to check for this, and having it on the quote itself, not just mentioned verbally, builds trust before you've laid a brick.
Send a new, separate quote for the variation: 'Additional scope: upgrade to porcelain tiling throughout, 45m2, R850 per m2.' Keeping variations as their own quote, referencing the original, avoids disputes about what was agreed originally versus what changed.
Break it into stage payments: 'Deposit on acceptance, 20%. Foundations complete, 20%. Roof complete, 30%. Finishes complete, 30%.' Request each via PayShap or EFT as the client confirms the stage is done. It keeps your cash flow matched to the work.
Either way works. Fold their quoted amount into your line item, 'Electrical and plumbing rough-in, subcontracted, R32,000,' or leave it as an allowance if you haven't got their final number yet. The client still sees one clear total from you.
Once it's accepted, you send a PayShap payment request for each stage straight to their banking app, or they pay by EFT and send proof of payment. There's no card checkout and no financing plan for South Africa, but PayShap requests usually clear within minutes, useful when you need to release funds to order materials for the next stage.
