Your Build. Our Eyes on the Ground.
Building in Kenya from overseas means trusting people with money you've worked years to earn. For many, that trust ends in inflated bills, materials that disappear, and a contractor who stops answering the phone the moment you ask a hard question. SiteEye Africa changes that. We work for one person on your project: YOU. Not the contractor, not the supplier, not the fundi holding the trowel. While they build, we're on the ground watching, documenting every stage, and reporting straight back to you, so being thousands of miles away never means being in the dark. Your money. Your build. Our eyes on the ground. Trusted by Clients in: • Kenya • United Kingdom • United States • UAE & Gulf • Canada • Australia
Kenya's Most Trusted Construction Watchdog
SiteEye Africa was founded to solve a problem every Kenyan abroad knows too well - you send money home to build your dream, and months later, you have nothing to show for it except excuses and a depleted account. We are a Nairobi-based construction oversight consultancy. Our team has deep on-the-ground knowledge of Kenya's construction industry - the contractor networks, materials markets, going labour rates, and the fraud patterns that repeat across unmonitored projects. We don't build. We watch, verify, report, and protect - on your behalf.
Ground-Level Honesty
We report what is actually happening on your site - not what the contractor tells us.
Client-First Always
Our loyalty is 100% to you. We have no contractor partnerships or referral commissions.
Documented Evidence
Every visit is timestamped, photographed, and written up in a formal structured report.
Diaspora Designed
Our reports and calls are built around clients who are thousands of miles away.
Every Month Without Oversight, Costs More Than Our Fee
Construction fraud in Kenya is not an exception - it is the norm for unmonitored projects. It's not about bad contractors. It's about an industry-wide culture of taking advantage when no one is watching.
💸 Inflated Bills of Quantities
Contractors knowingly overstate material quantities and unit costs when they believe the client won't scrutinise the numbers — which is almost always when that client is abroad.
🚛 Material Diversion
Cement, steel, tiles, and timber that you paid for are quietly redirected to other sites. Deliveries are partially offloaded. Receipts are fabricated. It requires someone on the ground to catch it.
👻 Ghost Workers & Slow Progress
Labour invoices include workers who weren't present, or your crew works at quarter pace knowing there's no accountability. Your money keeps moving. Your walls don't.
🔇 Communication Blackouts
Your contractor is responsive until there's a problem — then calls go unanswered for weeks. You're left in the dark, unable to make decisions, unable to escalate.
🏚️ Substandard Workmanship
Without regular professional inspection, structural shortcuts go undetected until it's too late. Defects that cost three times more to fix later. That's why there is need for Local representation.
Oversight plans for every stage
No hidden fees. Just honest eyes on your build and a report that tells you exactly what we found. Site Checks package include a 20% off for the first site visit with no commitment. Cancel anytime within 7 days notice. No lock-in contracts.

Real projects, real results
I'm a practicing doctor in Nairobi - I cannot do site visits during the week and contractors knew it. The first month with SiteEye Africa paid for itself three times over. I finally knew exactly what is happening with my project and my money. This service is genuinely essential.

Nairobi · 4 bedroom Farm House Build, Konza.
I work in Dubai and I had relatives in Kenya but I couldn't trust them with something this big. SiteEye Africa became my ground team. They renegotiated my BOQ, removed a dishonest subcontractor, and sent me video updates every single week. My house is now complete and I genuinely couldn’t have done it without them.

The regular photos and honest updates meant I always knew where my money was going, even from abroad. SiteEye Africa is the eyes on the ground you need.

Dubai, UAE · 4-bedroom build, Eldoret
I was based in Manchester and had been sending money home for 8 months with almost nothing to show for it. SiteEye's first report revealed that only 60% of the materials I'd paid for had actually arrived on site. That single report saved me over KES 400,000 and I finally knew who to fire."
