The house is newly renovated and completely empty. There are no furniture in the house and all the wardrobes and kitchen cabinets are empty. All appliances are new and the kitchen is new, meaning, there is no stubborn dirt. There are no rugs or carpets. The walls, doors & skirtings are freshly painted. The house just needs one general clean before we move in the furniture. Cleaning date preferably the 9th of December.
We have just purchased an old house that requires some TLC and/or remake to suit our taste, e.g. bigger kitchen with scullery, wooden floors repair & restoration, additional outdoor lighting, borehole water softening & purification, converting outside old bucket toilet into flushing one and finally look at solar system installation options.
I have sample plan to serve as an example. We are planning to rent commercial property that we want to renovate and turn into a radiology medical facility. The property need to be renovated to have a reception area, a waiting area for patients, a kitchen for the staff, a lounge resting area, a room that with small single compartments to allow doctors and other staff to sleep/rest while working overnight/overtime and an office space for the staff We are looking at square metres to spare metre rented facility. I have uploaded 2 sample plans of the other testing radiology rooms. so it won't look exactly like tis plan, but these are samples of how we would like the facility to look like. I would like quotes, or an idea of how the entire renovation cost would cost us. the building material cost, and labour, just a rough estimate would be great thanks

Waterproofing to the balcony: Aluminum doors will be removed to the balcony Aluminum doors and frames will be wrapped in bubble wrap and stored in the garage for safekeeping until re-installation. All cement and waterproofing layers will be chopped up and removed off-site from the balcony. Rubble skip will be on-site and removed once it is filled. All existing waterproofing will be removed. mm Turn-ups will be chopped off in order to apply the waterproofing application onto the bricks. Existing outlets will be removed. New 63mm Flange outlets will be fitted to the parapet walls to allow water to discharge outside of the balcony. Screed-to-fall will be done to ensure water runs out of the outlets, and that there will be no water ponding in any areas. 50x75mm Angle will be fitted where the door will be fitted to prevent water from running back into the rooms. The waterproofing application will consist of the following: x2 Coats of Mapei-Lastic Mapei-tape to all turn-ups and corners and into the cavities. Mapei-net the flat surface x1 coat will be applied, followed by the Mapei-net and Mapei-tape being applied on top of the 1st coat. 2nd coat will be applied over all of the above-mentioned after 24 hours. Aluminum doors and frames will be re-fitted. Turn-ups and bands around the frames will be plastered to a smooth finish. Waterproofing application and plaster will be left for x3 days before the painting and tiling can commence. New tiles will be installed.
we have been renovating some of the house over the last couple of years, but we are looking to upgrade so that we can sell the house for more. upgrading includes a full renovation of the kitchen and scullery area, upgrading two bathrooms, replacing all the window frames and flooring, skirtings, fireplace, painting and stiling the 5 bedroom house.

I live in England and I'm struggling to find a quote for a carpet cleaning company. I have a rental property in the Southern Suburbs Cape Town. The tenants will be moving out at the end of February and I would like a quote to clean the carpets please. The carpets that require cleaning are as follows: 1 large bedroom of 3x4m 2 medium bedrooms of about 3x2m each 1 small study of 2x2m sitting room 3x3m Lounge 3x4m Please could you quote to clean the carpets when the house is empty. It's not very dirty and we don't require stain treatment. We only need to have it cleaned. Thank you,
plumbing a bathroom needs to be done over as it is an old steel bath where plumbing is not in wall but on the wall. tiles also need to be replaced. it will be a bath with a shower overhead, basin also be replaced. garage roof also needs to be done over the wooden strip on wall against which sheeting is mounted is rotting badly so whole roof needs to be done with most of the frame still being in excellent condition. poor waterproofing caused the rot. one face board on the main home also needs to be replaced. possibly would like the wall in front of home removed and replaced with solid sliding steel gate as well. this gate will be manual not motor based
