Hi, The house is already built, and I have the approved plans with me. The house currently is square meters. There are 3 balconies, roughly totalling 18 square meters. Optionally, I want to add to the plan a room above my garage. The garage has a roof over it and is 36 square meters. I can discuss this further with the architect. I require the plan to be modified as above, approval with the home owners association board in my estate, and then approval at the deeds office. I need the fee for this service, and how long this process will take. Also aware that professionals might not edit someone elses work. So advice how we will go about.

You can contact my wife anytime or you can contact me via email, as I said I am stuck abroad due to the current Covid pandemic. The request is quite simple: We have an old house in Durban North that we have renovated and now we want to do the following works: Carport for the granny flat. This actually already installed but not on the original house plans Veranda shelter by the pool. This actually already installed but not on the original house plans boundary wall is the old precast fence panels that we want to clad with concrete. Not sure if this requires planning permission Install 2 shipping containers, which will be converted into a Gym/storage, carport and workshop area. The attached simple drawings I have prepared will explain the above: a) Site Plan: this will show what is the actual as of today and points 1&2 b) Container Design 3: Is the top view of point 4 c) Container Design 3 Roof: Is the side views and roof design of point 4. So our request is we want an Architect to advise costs for making the plans and getting planning permission approval.
