Good day I live at 37 Jim Fouche Rd, Constantia Kloof, Roodepoort. I am on an elevated part of the mountain and I have a neighbour who is below. I had a wall which collapsed. I have removed it since then. I need someone to look at the area carefully and analyse to determine what to build. I have an idea that I need a retainer wall at the very least. The last structural engineer i had look at it made some suggestions but I am not convinced it is the right one as it encroaches on my neighbours property. I do have permission from my neighbour, verbally but I need proper documentation to avoid any issues in future. I would like someone to come and have a look and do a thorough analysis as well costing of different scenarios. They need to be in the Roodepoort or very nearby areas. They need to have an excellent accumen, excellent documentation skills, clear communication and know exactly what to do and how to do it, i really don't want middle of the job surprises. I am not in a rush, I need a proper professional.
Firstly is roof which was damaged by floods. Ceiling boards, one bedrooms need tiling and build in cubboards. Kitchen cupboards with stove In some rooms ceiling board needs to be attended. In doors to be installed. Other pros to be discussed further. Need to get quotes first for best decision on the projects.
Please Whatsapp or email me, it will be quicker. I am unable to take calls. We will need to start with the builder and construction expert first, I need 3 different companies to come to see me so that we can give them all the information and take them to the building to show them what we want to do, I don't have the physical measurements etc with me.
The property is to be built in a rocky slop site in Jozini Norther KZN rural area, in step platform, making it 2 levels with a rooftop siting area/possible third floor. With balcony decks on the second and ground floor with an infinite pool, facing the Pongola dam from the mountain. The backside must have parking and a double garage. The house must have a 3/4-bed minimum with a master suite, an open-plan kitchen, and a living area opening to the deck and pool. North-facing sustainable eco home with a view.
Good day. We need to find a contractor that can attend to two matters: 1. A faulty chimney in a fireplace of an old house caused the loft floor and yellow wood beams to catch fire, some damage was done, not extensive. This floor needs to be restored to its original state and the chimney made safe / beams insulated for proper future use. 2. Leaking roof areas caused substantial internal damage, damp on walls and damage to meranti ceilings. These need to be restored to their original state and the roof repaired, ensuring all leaks are resolved. Location: Weltevreden Park, West Rand. Please can you come for inspection and quotes? Thank you. .
1. Demolish an existing house and build a new one in its place. 2. Demolish an existing rondavel and build a new one in its place. Works taking place on a farm. I still need to arrange for water drilling and installation of a septic tank outside as these properties will have bathroom facilities inside. I need quote for budgeting as works are planned to start in two years.

Our intention for this land is to build the Centre of Benevolence. It will be phased as both a community service property serving food daily to the rural community. For that we will require a large feeding hall/ multipurpose hall.

From an architectural point of view we require the following: - 3D Digital virtual model & Imagery (Renders) for Marketing purposes - Concept Plans for (Ganesh Temple, Dattatreya Temple, Shirdi Temple, Multifunctional Hall Including Feeding and Kitchen Area, Social interative spaces, Parking) - Master planning for activities being proposed on Site - Vaastu Design & Site Analysis (Documented) Our preference would be an architectural company that has prior experience in the development of such cultural/religious sites and an added bonus would someone who understands Indian architectural design (preferably a Vastu Consultant).

We recently bought a home in Lonehill and looking to renovate the home. It is an older home but has many possibilities and we are looking for something different and nice. We are planning a full renovation first and then will proceed with the interior styling. I am French and my English is not the best but I am able to discuss.
I am looking for someone who can design simple plans for small footprint homes ranging from 18 m² to m². I want to use them to get approval at Municipal level. I need my plans to be separated into 4 x phases. Foundation, structural, roofing and electrical/plumbing. They must also have the detailed quantities of materials for each phase. I have the basic designs. I have about 7 designs to start with and will be adding more as I expand.
