How to get building plan approval in South Africa?
What you have to do to get the permit and where to start.
Hi, I was advised by the council to contact a architect regarding internal alterations in my apartment. I have added a entryway (load bearing wall) to a room which I would like to convert to a lounge, close off my passage way and add a shower, basin and toilet to my lounge area. I need assistance in submitting these plans. Please advise cost etc.
To whom concerned I have an interest for a simple extension to include a small bedroom with simple en-suite adjacent to a laundry / utility space connecting the existing kitchen. Main house roof is pitched & will be parallel to this 3 walled extension of +~ 15-18 m2. The roof can be flat with or single pitch with skylights. My main concern at the moment is to attain compliant plans & permissions only. Further to this a second project is a small simple 1 bedroom cottage modern design aesthetic to the property. The available space is small & may need a loft or upper broom layout. Trusting you may propose a favourable design. This design work may suit a junior architect if this is ok to say. Kind Regards
I would like you to build me a one large bedroom cottage with lounge big enough for couches and a pool table, and small kitchen area to cook and eat but it must open plan with lounge. En suit as well with space for built in wardrobes. If possible I'd prefer my room to be upstarts where it will have a balcony overlooking my village.
1. I am buying a house and would like to re-do the kitchen and break out a non bearing wall, move the garage door and front door and the one window. 2. It has a built in patio with the same pitched roof and ceiling and sliding doors, but the floor is sunken from the main house by 15cm odd. I would like to level the floor as the same level as the main house. 3. Then I would like to extend the patio room out by maybe 2.5 meters with the same pitched roof out and enclose as a larger patio

The land is sea facing so we are looking to maximise the views when building this property. it will most probably be a double storey as we need to get as much height so as to enjoy the full sea view, however we are open to suggestions. the house needs to be modern home with more glass then brick with a really good seaside look and vibe.

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.
My late mother's house was built incorrectly it's a 3 bedroom house with lounge and dining room, kitchen and bathroom. It looks like the person who was doing it was an amateur because the house ended up look like a church building. I would like to get a quote to renovate it to look like the plan I have attached here.
