Our services include, but are not limited to preparing the following documentation:
Sketch plans are preliminary plans that are less detailed than municipal or working drawings. They are prepared to illustrate the concept or development configuration and provides a visual overview of what your project will look like.

Municipal / council documentation
Before you start with any building work (new or alterations and additions) it is required by law that you submit a building plan to your local municipality / council for approval. These plans have to comply with the minimum requirements and regulations in terms of the National Building Regulations.
-
Construction / tender documentation
More detailed design, details and specifications are prepared to assist you with more accurate building/construction costs, when tendered or quoted for. It is during this stage that we will start looking at finishes in detail. More detailed working drawings can be/are done, if required (e.g. bathroom and kitchen designs, cupboards and lighting, etc.). During this stage, we start preparing the building contract that needs to be signed between the client and contractor who will be appointed. This needs to be signed before any work can commence.
