Home Design Emporium 

For as far back as I can remember, I have always enjoyed designing and building. Whether it was a Meccano set or Lego, my passion for creating something tangible and presentable, was always in my blood.

It was therefore, a natural transition for me to further my studies within the Construction field. My first job offered me the chance to train as a Site Agent/Foreman, and from there my passion for Architecture evolved into a burning ambition to follow this path. Laying pen to paper and seeing those drawings eventually become a tangible reality was where I saw my career heading. 

Over the years, I expanded my knowledge and training within the Architectural and Construction industries by working in roles which woud allow my professional growth. I have worked as a Building Inspector and Plan Scrutiniser for a local Town Council, as well as an Architectural Technologist for an Architectural Practice. 

One of my biggest achievements while working as an Architectural Technologist, was to carry out the architectural detailing work for the Mohale Dam Township in Lesotho, one of the phases under the behemoth Lesotho Highlands Water Project, a project that would take me a solid eight months to generate just under 300 A1 drawing sheets. 

After a few years within Architecture, I felt that I needed a change of direction as a fresh challenge, and diversified into the Retail Motor Industry. Throughout my time there I had always stayed abreast of progress within the architectural field and in my spare time, I enjoyed teaching myself the various CAD programmes being utilised within the Architectural industry. I have always kept in touch with the latest trends in construction, as this is my joy and passion.

In early 2020, the call from the Architectural field once again drew me back to my original passion. I started my own architectural design consultancy, with the view to providing home design and architectural services in the predominantly residential market, covering a broad spectrum of both standard and modern designs, but with the focus now on more energy efficient buildings. 

While developing and expanding my architectural design consultancy business, the realization of not just architectural design and consultancy, but the need for property inspections, focusing on quality and standard of property construction and finishing, has come to the fore. Realizing, that many people investing in property, are not sure of what the condition(s) are of the property they intend investing in, I formed a new business called C BAT Building and Property Inspectors. This has broadened my field of expertise and services to be rendered to you, our valued client. This now offers you a genuine 'One Stop Shop' experience.

I am passionate about what I do, and I pride myself in what I have to offer, and would love the opportunity to help you with your needs in the property market.
