Contact Coral & Teak

We take enquiries on WhatsApp, and this site has no contact forms. A first message with a few details about your plot or building is enough to start.

Opens a WhatsApp chat with Coral & Teak. No forms.

How to contact us on WhatsApp

Send a message to our WhatsApp number, +380 50 720 0301, or press any WhatsApp button on this site to open a chat with us. The button adds an opening line naming the page you came from, and you type your details after it.

Photos and PDF drawings go into the same chat. Pressing a button takes you from this site into WhatsApp, and our privacy policy explains what happens to your details at that point.

What to write in your first message

Six points cover most of what we need at the start; send the ones you have and leave out the rest.

  • What the job is: a new villa, house or hotel, a renovation, a pool, an interior, or design work alone.
  • Where the plot or building is in Zanzibar: the area or nearest village, with no exact address.
  • Whether drawings exist: architect's plans, a hand sketch or only a written brief.
  • Photos of the plot or the existing building, taken from several sides.
  • When you would like work to start, in plain words rather than a fixed date.
  • Whether you live in Zanzibar or will follow the work from abroad.

Our work is limited to Zanzibar, and about Coral & Teak sets out what we take on and what we do not. We build on a plot you already hold. If you live abroad, see how construction project management works for a remote client.

What happens after you send it

Our reply comes in the same chat, and from there the work goes in this order:

  1. Our questions about the plot, the building size and the finishes you have in mind.
  2. A site visit to the plot or the building, agreed in the chat, when the job needs one.
  3. If there are no drawings yet, an agreement on the design work that comes first.
  4. An itemised estimate from the drawings and the visit, then a quotation once the scope is fixed.

What goes into that figure is explained in how an estimate is built. The later steps are set out in the route that leads to handover.
