How long does an architectural project typically last?
Let's go over the timeline for the construction of a new family home.
Hi There My folks live in Pilgrim’s Rest in a year old house. I would like to have one of the structural walls taken down and will require the assistance of a Structural engineer to ensure that the correct support beams are put in place to redistribute the weight etc. I would love a quote on the following: - Removal of load bearing wall and instillation of adequate substitute support pillars to redistribute the weight so that they house is not structurally compromised. - The removal of a rotten wooden floor approximately 4.5x4m and filled in with concrete. Please kindly contact me via email Kind Regards
I’m looking to build a 2 story granny flat, with half of the ground floor being a car garage. The rest of the ground floor should have an open plan kitchen and living area with a kitchen bar counter where 2 people can eat, a powder room under the stairs to the first floor, and sliding doors all across one wall. The first floor should have a bathroom, walk in closet and large bedroom with space for a coach and tv in front of the bed. Nice to haves include wooden floors, air conditioning, large windows, security bars on all entrances to the building and the upstairs, and stylistic stairs. The proposed location of the build is street facing and next to a property boundary wall, it’s important to us that no one can see into the first floor which is above street level, while still getting optimal light. I have attached some inspiration pictures for the layout of the kitchen & bedroom.
A deck sits over my bedroom. The deck has a water feature and has planter trenches built into the low perimeter wall of the deck. There are signs of damp in the ceiling of the bedroom. I suspect the water feature and planter trenches are the source of the damp. I want to remove the water feature and trenches, and ensure that those areas are waterproof.

I have recently completed 5 volumes of a multi-media practical self-help series aimed at the mass markets in the States, Canada, Australia, Europe and India.

I am looking for a SMO to assist me with digitally formatting and placing my ads, organically to begin with, (starting with Google Ads, then TikTok, IG,FB and X) in the most creative ways. A full email campaign is ready to go as a Phase 2. You will be a renegade, an expert to utilize your social media skills to drive traffic to my website using the lowest possible budget/adspend with the highest possible traffic returns. Am offering a success based incentive of a percentage of each unit sold (and the market is huge). ARE YOU THAT PERSON? Please contact me 54 99

I live in an old Victorian house. It’s a grade IIB listed property. I’ll be doing heritage-approved renovations. I’m looking for a builder that understands the requirements for these old homes as all building work needs to be sympathetic to the materials used in these houses (ie, lime mortar and plaster). Portland cement cannot be used as part of this project. Airplast is a good project that should be used instead, so a builder with knowledge of this product or similar is essential.
