The start of March 2026 marks an exciting new chapter for Build it Bredasdorp. On 1 March 2026, the store officially came under new ownership by the same team behind the successful Build it Gansbaai and Build it Hermanus stores.
For the Bredasdorp community, this transition brings not only continuity but also the reassurance of a management team with many years of experience in the building materials industry.
With a strong reputation for service excellence and community involvement, the new owners are committed to building on the solid foundation already established in Bredasdorp.
Their goal is simple: to continue providing reliable building materials, friendly service, and expert support for local builders, contractors, and homeowners.
From Local Beginnings to Regional Success
The story behind the new ownership began more than two decades ago with the establishment of Build it Gansbaai in February 2004.
As a family-owned store, it was built on the principles of trust, personal service, and a genuine commitment to the local community.
Over the years, Build it Gansbaai grew into a respected supplier of building materials, hardware, and construction products in the Overberg region.
Contractors and homeowners alike came to rely on the store for quality products, practical advice, and dependable service.
Following this success, the family expanded their footprint in 2015 with the acquisition of Build it Hermanus.
Building on the experience gained in Gansbaai, the team transformed the Hermanus store into a flagship destination for building materials and construction supplies.
Today, Build it Hermanus is widely recognised as one of the leading suppliers of building materials in the area, setting a high standard for service, product range, and reliability.
Experienced Leadership and Continued Service Excellence
The leadership behind these stores is now in the capable hands of Dylan Burger, Clayden Burger, and Warwick Addison.
Together, they have taken over the management and ownership of Build it Gansbaai and Build it Hermanus and are now extending their expertise to Build it Bredasdorp.
Over the years, customers in Gansbaai and Hermanus have come to appreciate the hands-on approach and commitment to service that this team brings to the business.
The same focus on customer relationships, product availability, and knowledgeable support will continue to guide the operations at Build it Bredasdorp.
For the local community, this means the same dependable service and support that customers have experienced at the other stores in the group.
More Than Just a Building Materials Supplier
As an independently owned business, the team behind Build it Bredasdorp believes their role extends far beyond simply supplying building materials.
Their philosophy is based on partnership.
Whether a customer is building a new home, renovating a property, upgrading outdoor spaces, or tackling a DIY project, the goal is to provide the materials, guidance, and support needed to achieve the best results.
Customers can expect:
-
- Friendly and knowledgeable staff
- Reliable sourcing through the national Build it network
- Advice based on real local building experience
This commitment to helping customers succeed in their building and renovation projects has been a key part of the success story behind both Build it Gansbaai and Build it Hermanus.
Great Specials and Value for the Bredasdorp Community
Another benefit of the new ownership at Build it Bredasdorp is access to competitive pricing, promotions, and regular specials on a wide range of building products.
Local customers can look forward to:
- Special offers on building materials and supplies
- Promotions on hardware and renovation products
- Seasonal deals for DIY and home improvement projects
- Access to a broader supply network through the Build it group
These offerings ensure that builders, contractors, and homeowners in Bredasdorp can source the products they need at competitive prices while receiving trusted local service.
Building Relationships with the Bredasdorp Community
The acquisition of Build it Bredasdorp represents more than just business growth. It is an opportunity to become part of another strong local community within the Overberg region.
The team understands that local building suppliers play an important role in supporting development, renovations, and home improvements throughout the area.
Their focus will remain on building strong relationships with customers, contractors, and local businesses while maintaining the values that have guided their success over the years.
With a proven track record in Gansbaai and Hermanus, the new owners look forward to continuing that success and serving the Bredasdorp community with the same dedication and passion for many years to come.
