How long does an architectural project typically last?
Let's go over the timeline for the construction of a new family home.
4 bed, 2 on suite, lounge, dinning room, kitchen. Exc The builder has to be experienced with reinforced concrete work. We will be doing the furnishings on the inside like the taps and basins and such as well as the furnishings on the outside. We will need the builder to assist with plumbing and electrical but not much else. We are only willing to go up to R2,5 million in total for the building of this house.
Designing an educational centre- themed as an Animal Welfare Discovery Centre. It is about animal welfare and environmental education for all age groups, building on the sanctuary experiences and education concept- to promote behaviour change towards a world where people treat animals with respect empathy and understanding. The designs should reflect these educational elements and aligned to the One Welfare (animal welfare-human welfare and environmental aspects) framework. We are looking for an environmentally friendly building (low carbon footprint, sustainable use of water resources, green technology)
The estate requires that the design of the house be a South African vernacular farm and country style, but I would like it to have a very modern twist to it. I am currently in the process of discussing with architects and once that is finalised, I will need a good building contractor who can bring the vision for the home to life.
I need a replacement quote on our Sectional Title units in a complex please; generally 2 bed units of +-87 square meter each; and a boat locker each of 36 square meter.

House and garage was attached via adjoining wall which is currently the extended kitchen and dining room. Roof for the above mentioned currently is waterproofed and shutterply. Additions to be done, remove waterproofing and shutterply, remove garage roof which sits approximately 20sqm, deck both roofs with the possibility of additional room above decking.

We have water pooling in our back yard and front yard after heavy rains. The water stays for about 3 days after each rain due to slow drainage, and is about half a meter deep. We are wanting a quote to see how much it would cost to put in a drainage system, or how best to rectify the pooling. The start date would depend on costs, our budget, ect.
I want to do full renovations on the kitchen and the bedrooms. This includes kitchen cabinetry, flooring, etc. I am currently in Cape Town but will be returning to the property in round about two weeks time and would like to arrange site visits from the 30th of June to discuss and answer any possible questions.
