Do I need an architect if I want to build a house in South Africa?
A professional that is registered with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession must submit the building plans before extending, renovating or building a home.
I have a house in cresta that I wanna turn into a b&b, I want more rooms with toilet build where the swimming pool is
I am looking to build my own home constructed from treated gumpoles.
I need advice on where to install a staircase inside my house
I have plans for a new house and needs extension after completion
Good day, I am interested in buying a plot, yet need to know what my spend will be for a 2 bed 2 bathroom on suite, large open please lounge kitchen dinning room office space, possibly double garage/carport and possibly 25x2.m salt pool - off the grid options available and preferred... Within guidelines of a development.
We built our own house about 5 years ago but never finished the entrance/upstairs living area in terms of design and finishes. It has basically remained an open unfinished space since we moved in. We are now at the point whereby we would like to make use of the area but due to shape/size we are at a bit of a loss at how best to utilize the space. Hence the reason I am contacting you. Ideally I would like somebody to come in and construct some suggestions for review before proceeding to complete finish of project ranging from painting and wallpapering to installation of furnishings such as rugs, sofas, plants etc.
Open plan house Dinning room, Lounge room, patio with braai area and sink, kitchen, Laundry, main bathroom + shower , Double garage, mini bar, main bedroom En-suite + shower, 2 bedrooms
We are in the process of buying a house. It has an old building plan that is still measured in foot. We want to extend one bedroom with 3mx3m and build an en suite of 2mx2m. We need submission to the Drakenstein Municipality too. I have attached our idea in a photo attached.
