Who We Are:
Building KwaZulu-Natal, One Project at a Time
Simunye Civils was founded in January 1996 in response to the growing infrastructure needs of post-apartheid Southern Africa. From day one, our mission has been simple: build essential infrastructure to the highest standard, on time, within budget — and leave every community we work in better than we found it.
Based in Wentworth, Durban, we are a 100% Black-owned and managed civil engineering firm with deep roots in KwaZulu-Natal. Our teams are professionally registered, technically skilled, and experienced across roads, stormwater, water reticulation, oil and gas infrastructure, and housing construction.
When you appoint Simunye Civils, you are appointing 30 years of hands-on experience, a leadership team registered with SACPCMP and SAICE, and a company that genuinely understands the communities it serves.
Security Clearance
National Key Point Contractor Access
Simunye Civil’s clearance reflects our culture.
Simunye Civils holds National Key Point contractor access, having been security vetted and cleared to operate within the Engen Petroleum Refinery — a declared National Key Point under the National Key Points Act (Act 102 of 1980). This clearance reflects our compliance culture, the integrity of our staff, and our ability to work safely and responsibly within South Africa’s most sensitive industrial environments.
OUR CERTIFICATION
Built to the Highest Standard — Certified to Prove It
Simunye Civils holds internationally recognised ISO certifications across quality management, environmental responsibility, and occupational health and safety. These are not decorative credentials — they are the frameworks we operate within on every site, every day. For our clients, this means you are appointing a contractor held to a globally recognised standard of delivery.
