Do I need an architect if I want to build a house in South Africa?
A professional that is registered with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession must submit the building plans before extending, renovating or building a home.
I would like to specify that the house us in a slightly steep area. I intend to change the existing garage to two bedrooms with a bathroom. I want to build a new garage in the front with a carport attached to it In square metres I can't tell exactly but I intend to change the face of the house. I want a new garage at the front of the house with a carport attached to it. The old garage, I intend to change it to be a two roomed flat with a bathroom and small living area. I don't know whether this will fall in the quote I would like to change the shape of stairs from going downwards to the gate and that the stairs come from sideways
We have done some alterations to our house and we thought that the person who did our plans back then submitted everything. We have now sold the house and the new owner is looking for the plans, only to find out that the plans were never even submitted for the extensions. We have now fully moved to Jeffrey's Bay and need someone to help us sort this out asap!

Good day I need ideas for small spaces in the house to maximize the use for it. For instance, I have 2 rooms, on the smaller side, but have to accommodate 2 kids per room. I therefore need estimates of what I will be looking at price wise and then decide if I can do all spaces in one go or in sections. Thank you kindly Kind regards
