Choosing exterior and interior house paint - should you consult a professional?
A lot goes into what paints you should use to update your home’s interior and exterior paint colours.
I would like to convert our garage into a room that doubles as a home office/gym. i.e. home office during the day, gym in the evening. The idea is to end up with one large room after the following has been done: 1. Seal off the garage door 2. Add a frosted window to the sealed garage door that opens (for fresh air) 3. Add 2 large windows and a door on the adjacent wall Outside the garage is a covered open parking which I would also like to convert to a closed parking as follows: 1. Add a large gate to make it a closed parking 2. Add metal bars on top of the adjacent durawall similar to the ones on the opposite wall
Ita on a deck exactly similar to the one displayed on the attachments. The video attached is ons that was already done in regards to the paint being removed . These pillars are so difficult to remove the paint . Small gaps and difficult to get to every side . So a qoute for paint removal and new paint + restoration on most of the pillars . Cracks , broken concrete , etc .
1. Remodel an existing garage, with adjoining servant's quarter, into one big area (intending to use it as home office space). 2. Upgrade an existing separate servant's toilet, with new modern fittings. 3. Enclose an existing double carport, for use as a new garage. Or build a new double garage, depending on regulations. 4. Remodel/rebuild an existing lapa area with built-in braai. The current supporting structure is a combination of bricks and sleeper wood, with a thatched roof. Want to change the supporting structure to be bricks only and replace thatch with tiles, in full. Keeping built-in braai, in place. 5. Getting the plans in order, after that the building will commence.

I would like to refresh the interior (first phase) and exterior (second phase) of my house. The interior refresh will include painting the bathroom tiles, painting the floor tiles (whole house) and fixing cracks and holes in current tiling. The kitchen cabinets, tiles and walls will also require painting. Finally the interior walls will require repainting. Hopefully this can be done before the holidays. The exterior refresh will include repainting the boundary walls and the house exterior walls including the garage doors. Palisade fence between neighbors will also need to be painted white. This can happen in January.
We need help renovating our home we are purchasing. Its a 3 bedroom townhouse in a complex. We anticipate geting most of the rooms carpeted, sitting room as well as the stairs. The bathrooms (2) also need a retouch, and in the balconies we would like to close off with clear glass slide doors, as well as maybe add in a small room/storage area on the ground level on the garden side.

I want to extend my master bedroom by about 2.5m. Width of the bedroom is 4.0m. Roof height about 2.5m In the attachment: The dark grey walls are the existing bedroom. The cavity currently contains a window and a door, which will have to be removed and are not suited to reuse. The pink walls are for the extension. The thin pink line is a window. The slatted pink is the roof. The roof is flat and just an extension of the patio roof. No cupboards. Floor probably tiles.
