I’m not sure how to explain it, but I want to renovate my grandmother’s house. It was originally a four-room township house and was extended in . My goal is to improve its functionality and flow by making the kitchen and lounge open plan, fixing the roof, and demolishing the en-suite in the main bedroom. The hallway layout doesn’t make sense, so I’d like to rework it, as well as completely redo the main bathroom. Additionally, I need to address structural issues like the leaking roof, flatten the plaster for a smoother finish, install a stacking door in the lounge, and add a new window in the main bedroom. I also want to replace all windows and doors—both inside and outside—to give the house a cleaner, more modern look. Overall, I just want to make the house neater, more practical, and improve its overall flow.
There is a water leak in my shower. I've called out guys who specialize in water leak detection and they've determined that some of the grouting between the wall tiles in the shower is the cause of the leak. The job is to remove some of the wall tile grouting where required and to re-grout with a proper water-proof grout with matching color of the existing grout. (refer attached picture, the green color is an example of where the grout needs to be replaced)
My child is in foster care with my parents de to substance abuse for 2years, I did go to a rehabilitation center, I am sober minded, I have a stable life where my son can stay with his stepfather. I have enough funds to look after him and put him into school. But the problem is that my mother has not been honest with the social workers and they can no longer take care of him as my parents are retired.

I am 65 years old. Was married for 35 years then got divorced. After some years I met my current partner. We have been living together for 4 years. I received R1million from my divorce settlement. With that money and from the sale of my motor vehicle I managed to purchase the house we are living in at the moment. Unfortunately I did a silly thing and had the house registered in my name as well as my partners name. We had a verbal agreement that if I put the house in both our names then my partner would have to share everything he had with me. Meaning we would be living as if we were married in community of property. My partner is 68 and was retrenched. He did however find other employment. Salary around R per month plus he receives a monthly pension of around R. Things are not going well between us. I want to leave him but he now refuses to give me half of his salary and his pension. Says I am only entitled to half the proceeds of the house and some household items. He has a hobby collection worth around R1million. I put money towards this collection as well. I would like to know where I stand financially with this. For example....can I claim half his hobby collection, half his salary, half his vehicle and half his pension?

I have two cars parked (next to each other) under a shadecloth, which, as it turns out, was a complete waste of time. I would like to have the roof of the carport in line with, as far as possible, the top block of the vibracrete wall so as to ensure as little sun as possible gets in. The issue I have is the carport gets the south easter from the south east and gets the northwest as well. My concern would be the wind blowing the roof off if it got blocked into a wind tunnel of sorts.
