Over-ordering materials is costing builders more than they realise
Most builders worry about running short. But over-ordering has its own hidden costs.
Excess sand on site gets contaminated, compacted by rain or stolen before it's used. Excess stone blocks access routes and becomes a site hazard. And material you don't use is money that doesn't come back.
The fix isn't a perfect formula โ it's a conversation with your supplier before you order.
Hlela ngobulumko, yakha ngokuqinileyo โ Plan wisely, build strongly.
