Simple! Contact us for a free consultation. We will listen to your needs, offer expert advice, and create a plan tailored just for you.

The direct answer is NO. The plans need to be drawn up by a qualified architect and submitted to the municipality. The City of Tshwane requires these plans to ensure that your project complies with zoning laws, building codes, and safety regulations. Without an approved plan, you may face fines, delays, or even the need to tear down unauthorised structures.

We know that things don’t always go as planned. And we also know that what you need from us is transparency when it comes to budgeting and avoiding unexpected expenses. We provide a clear and detailed estimate upfront. If there are any changes or additional costs, we will discuss them with you beforehand and ensure your approval before moving forward. We will never just go ahead without talking to you first and coming up with a solution for you.
