We have moved away from the typical percentage fee typical of many architecture practices. We have created a simple seven step fee structure, outlined below, that provides our clients with a step by step fixed fee proposal.
Stage 2 - Scheme Design - Here, once the sketch proposal is firmed up. We will work up a set of CAD drawings, existing and proposed. For discussion with the planning authority and planning application if required.
Stage 3 - Building regulations - Once we have the planning approval. The drawings are revised and added to to create a set of drawings for submission to Building Control for Building Regulations approval.
Stage 5 - Tender and Contract - Here we help chose contractors, check references, prepare tender packs, send tenders, check tender prices, negotiate savings and organise contract documents.
Stage 7 - Interior Design - Whether as a stand alone project or alongside a complete project Laura is here to help. Be it choosing a feature wallpaper for a room or a colour scheme for a whole house. This process puts our clients back in control of their fee budget. Giving you the chance to pick and choose the services you need and know exactly what you are paying and when. Importantly it also means no chance of a nasty large bill at the end of the project when all the bills are in.
