How long does an architectural project typically last?
Let's go over the timeline for the construction of a new family home.
Currently we have a 2 bedroom home and a small bathroom. All of the rooms are too small. We want to remove the current bathroom completely because it is next to the kitchen and make that space part of the kitchen. We want to use one of the existing rooms to convert it into a bathroom. We then want to extend the other bedroom as well as the kitchen and lounge area and add another bedroom as well.
The client requires 2 bathroom renovations. Bathroom 1 is 7sqm and includes the adjoining of the common bathroom and toilet by demolishing the existing wall between the two and bricking one of the doors. The bathroom will include a new bath, shower, hand wash basin/ vanity and toilet with new plumbing to exterior wall. new tiling and

We will be doing the furnishings on the inside like the taps and basins and such as well as the furnishings on the outside. We will need the builder to assist with plumbing and electrical but not much else. We are only willing to go up to R2,5 million in total for the building of this house.
I am looking for fencing for my yard, for a farmland. I am able to arrange pick-up from the supplier. I would also like some advice with regards to how many poles will be needed along with the fencing and with regards to anything else I might need along with the fence.

To razor wire a small weak access area on property. Dogs prove a good deterrent as do the sheer height and fencing/security by neighbouring properties. Due to constant Load Shedding, camera, electric fence and security options prove redundant due to their reliance on electricity. As such, I would like to just address the small weak area. Not a very big job but necessary so a visit and subsequent quote would be most appreciated.
Designing an educational centre- themed as an Animal Welfare Discovery Centre. It is about animal welfare and environmental education for all age groups, building on the sanctuary experiences and education concept- to promote behaviour change towards a world where people treat animals with respect empathy and understanding. The designs should reflect these educational elements and aligned to the One Welfare (animal welfare-human welfare and environmental aspects) framework. We are looking for an environmentally friendly building (low carbon footprint, sustainable use of water resources, green technology)
The estate requires that the design of the house be a South African vernacular farm and country style, but I would like it to have a very modern twist to it. I am currently in the process of discussing with architects and once that is finalised, I will need a good building contractor who can bring the vision for the home to life.
