Two Russia-educated Zimbabwean engineers came together to bring European-standard execution to African construction.
FIG.01NeftStroi Engineering (Pvt) Ltd, trading as NeftStroi Engineering, was founded in October 2023 by Liniance Christopher Machaka (Structural) and Tafadzwa Gara (Electrical) — both formally trained in Russia.
We came together to address a recurring problem in the Zimbabwean built environment: under-qualified personnel over-promising and under-delivering. Our motto — Research. Improve. Execute. — is how we close that gap.
From foundation pour to final paintbrush, our engineers stay on the table beside you. We won early competitive tenders from DA Petroleum and Nyaradzo, and we have delivered residential, commercial, and hospitality projects across Harare, Marondera, and Lake Kariba.
Honest counsel, transparent pricing, and clear contracts. We tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear.
We don't just deliver; we guide. Our engineers stay on the table beside you from first sketch to final snag.
Our sub-contractors are the best in the market, vetted and accountable. You get one team, one voice, one quality.
European-standard engineering brought to bear on African construction realities — practical, durable, future-ready.
Every job starts on paper. We plan, schedule, and budget before a single brick is laid.
Won tenders against DA Petroleum and Nyaradzo. Quality wins on merit, every time.
Soil, structure, services. We model what most contractors guess.
Big or small, the same standard of craft. Show up, build well, hand over clean.
Continuous improvement is a discipline. We learn from every project that leaves our books.
Two Russia-educated Zimbabwean engineers — structural and electrical — on every project, on every call. No outsourced PM. No middlemen.
