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.
We have a technician who has laid out the flow according to what we want for our home. We have been living here for a long time and have very specific needs. We are 90% there but we require design services to tie into the new build area and we need the plans to be made compliant so that they will be accepted by the City of Cape Town.
4 bedrooms 3 bathrooms type of a house.
I am planning an extension and modification of our garage. If all goes well this will be the first of a series of renovations to our property. A structural engineer's report is attached. A feature not included in the report is the desire to extend the garage to the sidewalk.
I want to extend a single story house with a double story part. I need a garage at the bottom and a bedroom on top. I also want to extend the kitchen slightly.
We need to remodel our industrial building of about sqm. I live in the North Coast of KZN and this industrial building is in Mafikeng. I will not be having the time to be liaising with municipality etc as I am not in the area. I will need the architect to help with submitting plans as well and the project management aspect.
I am looking to convert two bedrooms into one main bedroom and a walk-in closet.
It's a hardware store we need it to be arranged.
Need advice as we want to remove a wall internally and enclose the stoep
I have a rough idea of what I am looking for. Please call me to discuss.
