Build it Hermanus – Building Materials and more to make home building simple!

Build It Hermanus

Build it Hermanus are the Market Leaders of Hermanus Building Materials, Construction Materials, and DIY for the Hermanus local Community.

In 2015, following the 12-year success story of Build it Gansbaai, the Burger family embarked on another adventure by expanding their family operations, with the purchase of prime property, in Hermanus.

By applying the same expert advice, industry knowledge, and excellent customer service, Build it Hermanus has become the flagship of Hermanus building supplies, setting a new standard in the building materials arena.Providing a full solution, to build a home from planning to completion! Their main focus directed on the building of urban and township housing as well as all your Do-It-Yourself (DIY) home improvements. With the Burger’s core values of Family, Entrepreneurship, and Passion at the core of everything they do, Build it Hermanus is part of a group of 374 independently owner-run, retail stores across South Africa that has been supplying building materials and serving their communities for 32 plus years.

The Burger family believes that it is their duty and responsibility to give back to the communities that support them. One of the ways they do this is through ongoing sponsorship of under 13 soccer development in Hermanus. “By nurturing a healthy lifestyle through sport, we are building a better future for our youth.” Other community projects they also proudly participate in are school renovations and the sinking of water boreholes. Build it is a division of the SPAR Group Limited South Africa. A voluntary trading group of individually owned retail stores with more than 10 000 employees across the group, we currently have stores in South Africa, Namibia, Swaziland, Lesotho and Mozambique with plans to expand into Botswana and Zambia in the near future. We view ourselves not only as a supplier of materials, but as a partner to our valued customers in accomplishing their building or renovating projects.

Congratulations!

I remember Robert Kiyosaki said, “2020 is about survival but those who can exploit it, will manage to achieve unparalleled heights this year too! The second half of 2020 is the challenge of entrepreneurial strength.”

This is a reality Dylan and Clayden Burger quickly realized and took the necessary measures to ensure the survival of their legacy.
