When do I need a building permit in South Africa?
In South Africa, building applications for the construction of property and land use are highly regulated.
I currently have a single storey house and would like to convert a part of it to a double storey. The new build would include a main bedroom with ensuite + dressing room, upstairs pajama lounge...and If possible, a second bedroom as well. I would also like to include a garage (ideally) attached to the main house.
3 bedrooms, Master to the left front, 2 bedrooms left back, open plan kitchen on the right back, living room right front and a porch in front of it, at least 2m wide. Main bedroom to communicate through a standard door to the living room and through a sliding door to the porch. Sliding door to the porch as well. No bathroom but storeroom instead on the left between main bedroom and the rear left-most bedroom.

It's an old structure that had some extensions made in the past, it needs to be tied together and rooted. I would love the property to be redesigned into a modern cape dutch farmhouse.
Mere extension of existing cottage. Want to enlarge lounge area. add additional 3m x5m with windows and sliding door. add electricity and a “stoep” with a roof for my elderly parents. I’m available in afternoons after 3:30 and on some weekends. plans needs to be submitted to municipality for approval. Walls to be plastered to match main house. Also need to attend to drainage that might possible be in the way. I have approved plans of existing structure (one bedroom & kitchen and lounge open plan)
