First the shower in the bathroom, then they fixed the leak, then in the kitchen. But water is still leaking through the wall. We called on our insurance with standard bank, but no response. We will do it ourselves because that wall is about to burst. We also need an professional to let us know what to do. The reason why we looking at an engineer is because of structural damage. Weather the is structural or not.

We are looking to design our new office building. We are a tech business and wanted something trendy but practical to build. This will be a Ground + 2 building totalling approximately 1, Sq meters of office space.
