We want to add a small bedroom and bathroom (shower, toilet and sink only) to the side of our house. The wall that will be shared between the extension and the old building will need a door. New bedroom will need a std window and sliding door. Small window for bathroom. One electric plug point in the bedroom. Bedroom size 6m X 2.5m. Bathroom size 2m X 2.5m. The roof will just need to be extended further to cover the new extension. 1 light fixture for each room. Where the new extension needs to be built there is currently a garden slope that needs to be cut away and a 15m retaining wall built. Can you please estimate the costs involved from plans, submission, materials, electrics, plumbing, plastering, etc. No painting or BIC cupboards required.

We want to build a house that is a double story due to space confinement. We would like to possibly have 3 bedrooms with one being a master bedroom with a walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom (maybe that could be the top bedroom because that will give more space for all of this). The middle, where everyone enters will be the open plan living room with a dining area and tv room. And the bottom (underground) could be the other two bedrooms and a shared bathroom. We'd also like the inclusion of a balcony for the main bedroom. I will be waiting for your phone call(s) Thank you

The current building plans at the CoCT are not very detailed nor up to date. I will be waiting for your response. Than you
