Carports vs. Garages: Pros and Cons
Which is better, a carport or a garage?
House still busy with transfer, looking at mid september occupation. Knocking out 2 walls (load bearing) and potentially placing in Lintils or I-Beams / H-Beams. replaster and paint to close up etc. The idea is to open the kitchen / lounge / dining room which are closed by walls. There is a slanted high ceiling in the lounge / dining room areas so the kitchen wall seems almost like a double high wall to the slanted roof. There are a few other minor walls to come out that are single sized walls 1 bathroom wall to connect a smaller bathroom to make it a bigger one. bricking up a doorway on a single wall and creating another doorway in the same wall somewhere else. knocking out a wall near the lounge, standard sized wall. Can attach pictures / video when needed and have a mock floor plan with changes but open to any other ideas from your team also. I am located in JHB currently so will have to work remotely, video / pictures until we can do a proper inspection of the house in September.

Good day, we are looking to build a tiny home of not more than 70m2 - 90m2 in the Rosendal, Free State area. The home should consist of 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom (shower in the bath) an open plan living and kitchen area as well as a stoep, all on one level. The erf is not sloped and flat, but the area consist of clay and I would suggest a floating foundation. The shape of the roof is not so important, so sloped or flat.
I have a stoep ceiling that needs replacing that was damaged with the strong wind, we also have the roof leaving that looks like a board is loose and this has caused water damaged on the vinal flooring that also needs to be repaired, Insurance has approved these repairs but need someone that can do it all.
