We also know that costs are important to you so please read on...............

Each case that we deal with is different and there will be costs involved that you may or may not be aware of to take you from your seed of an idea through to completion of your project.

When we understand the scope of your project, we will then provide you with a fee quotation.

Not only will that include the fees for our services, our quote will also give you an indication of the kind of additional fees that you may also incur during your project including application fees such as Planning and Building Regulations as well as likely costs from other consultants.

If you decide to use us, we will, at the relevant stages of the project obtain precise quotes from other consultants directly to yourselves. Please note that our quote will exclude the cost to build your project - your builder will give you costings based on our detailed plans.

Alternatively, we can put you in touch with a Quantity Surveyor who can carry out this service for you.

So who else will I need to budget for to complete my project?

Each project may or may not require the involvement of other consultants.

We ask any consultants that are required for your project to provide you directly with their quotation.

We are not bound by these consultants and you are welcome to get alternative quotes from alternative companies.

The kind of consultants that we work with vary depending on the project but can include:

Structural Engineers Energy Consultants Ecologists Drainage Engineers

Landscape Architects Highways Consultants Acoustic Engineeers Quantity Surveyors

Land surveyors (for topographical surveys) Arboriculturalists (tree experts)

Party wall surveyors

On top of this, there are further fees potentially payable to the following:

Local Authorities – for Planning application fees
Local Authorities – for Building Regulation application fees OR Private Building Inspector – for Building Regulation application fees
Water Authority – for permission to build near or over a public sewer
Internal drainage board – to build near to a rhyne or ditch
Community Infrastructure Levy fees or Section 106 fees – these are generally only relevant to large housing sites, new houses or very large house extensions

But please don’t be worried about all of the above as remember, our initial fee quote is free and no obligation so you can at least consider your project with your eyes wide open!
