We are buying a sq meter house, it consists of a double garage and house, we want to add on a front section to the house that ties in with the garage on one side and the existing house on the other, so adding two walls will add a new room. Additional we want to add one more garage on the side of the existing double garage, so 3 walls there to complete that garage. Then we want to add a braai room behind the existing double garage and house, so 2 walls to make that room. Finally we need to enlarge a bedroom at the end of the existing house, so 3 walls to add that space. Then on top of the garages we want to add a top floor with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and a teen lounge. The additional space is sq meters. The new front section gets a tin roof over the whole length and the back add on gets a extension if the existing tile roof. Included below is the house plan where I indicated what is already built, they never finished building the house to plan, and then a sketch of what we want to do.

A small addition to a house in our yard. Similar to the image. There is an existing cement floor, and 1 wall that is one of the walls of my grandmother's house. So all I need is 3 walls and a roof. And obviously a door and a window and an electrical plug. Maybe a 3m× 6m space. Not sure how many sqm that is.
We are adding on a braai room. The braai has already been built onto our existing deck, and we are now looking for someone to build the roof and windows/doors, raise a small section of the deck floor, replace the flooring with an indoor board/tile, add on a small section of deck outside the braai (repurposing the existing deck boards), and adding a standard door from our house to the braai area. Essentially, we are looking for someone to enclose the braai area. The plans are complete and we are working with a local PRINGLE BAY based architect who is very open with communication should you have any questions in the quotation or building process. We are looking to start ASAP and to have the project completed by the end of November. In hopes that we find the right builder, we have other projects lined up as well. Please note, there are 12 files in total but only 8 could be uploaded at a time. Please contact for additional files.
