Hi I want to have a front wall built in front of the garden on the boundary. I have a builder and the existing plans with me however I would just need a quote for the updated plan for the wall on the boundary. At some point, I would like to add a splash pool in my yard and room on top of the garage. This would be at a later stage (approximately within two years) So I would like to have this added to the plan as well. Kind Regards

We have a granny flat at the back of the yard that we want to join to the existing house. We had a new addition to the family which just makes our home feel a bit small, new extra rooms or specific styles. It would mainly be to get plan drawn up for the join and possibly a new idea of how to do the join that could be more effective than what we now think.
