What we do

Capacity & compliance

What we can carry

The questions any serious client asks before awarding work — answered up front.

Plant & equipment

We run our own plant rather than hiring in at short notice, so programmes hold when others slip.

Add: equipment list

Workforce

A workforce of around 100 — bricklayers, plant operators, welders and supervisors — directly employed, kitted out and site-ready.

Registration & compliance

Registered and compliant for public and private sector work in both countries.

Add: PRAZ / CIFOZ / registration numbers

Contract range

Comfortable across small works and multi-phase contracts, with the cashflow and crews to match.

Add: typical contract values

Safety on site

Full PPE, scaffolding and site controls as standard — visible on every job we run.

Add: safety record / policy

References

Past clients who'll take the call and tell you how the job actually went.

Add: referees
How we deliver

No surprises between award and handover

Every contract runs to the same rhythm, so you always know where the job stands and what's been certified.

Enquiry & site visit

We walk the site, understand the scope and confirm what's actually required.

Costing & programme

Priced bill and a delivery programme you can hold us to.

Mobilisation

Crews, plant and materials on site, with a named supervisor running the job.

Execution & reporting

Work proceeds in certified stages with progress reporting as we go.

Handover

Final inspection, snags closed out, and the site left clean.

The Robworth crew on site
Our people
"Our crews are our own. Same faces, same standards, every site — that's why the work looks the same whether I'm standing there or not."

Where we work

Two countries, one standard

Established operations either side of the border, so cross-border clients deal with one contractor rather than two.

Zimbabwe

Our home base — roads, commercial buildings, residential schemes and fabrication, with crews and plant based here. Add: head office location & areas served

Zambia

Established through partnership, bringing the same crews, systems and standards to projects across the border. Add: Zambia operation detail

Common questions

What clients ask before awarding

Answered here so procurement doesn't have to chase you for it. Replace with the real questions Robert gets every week

How long has Robworth been operating?

Robworth has been building since 2018, and has delivered over 100 projects across Zimbabwe and Zambia in that time. Add detail: earliest notable contracts

What size contracts does Robworth take on?

Placeholder — state the range plainly, from smallest to largest, and note capacity to run concurrent sites. Procurement teams shortlist on this before anything else.

Are you registered for government and council tenders?

Placeholder — list registrations, categories and numbers. In Zimbabwe this is the first filter for public sector work, so put it in writing.

Do you use your own plant and crews, or subcontract?

Placeholder — a real differentiator worth being explicit about, since directly employed crews and owned plant mean the programme holds.

How do you price and certify work?

Placeholder — priced bills, stage certification, retention, and how variations are handled.

What's your safety record and policy?

Placeholder — PPE standards, site controls, incident record. Corporates won't award without this.

Can you work across Zimbabwe and Zambia on one contract?

Placeholder — how the cross-border arrangement works in practice.

Do you build for private clients as well as institutions?

Placeholder — the residential and private-client side, and how to start that conversation.
