Services
Our first consultation is designed to set out the project brief and specify the services required. We provide documentation in the form of a letter of appointment and a RIBA Fee Proposal. The explanation follows the RIBA Plan of Work, ensuring mutual understanding and confirming the terms of our agreement.
Measured Survey
Report
Through detailed measured surveys, we create accurate drawings of your property based on professional topographical assessments. These surveys inform the preparation of preliminary plans, sections, and elevations, which act as the foundation for developing proposals. At this stage, the drawings can support cost estimation and form the basis for early discussions with contractors or local planning authorities.
Building Regulations
Report
We provide a comprehensive service for all planning applications, producing the necessary presentation drawings and submitting them to the Local Planning Authority. Regular engagement with the case officer allows us to promptly manage any arising issues. Standard applications have an eight-week determination period, with approvals lasting three years. Applications involving Conservation Areas or Listed Buildings involve more detailed work, which we frequently undertake with expertise.
Working Drawings
Report
Our working drawings provision encompasses full or partial sets, meticulously detailing critical or customised elements for construction. This service prioritises accuracy, ensuring that every bespoke feature is clearly illustrated and that the project progresses smoothly and in accordance with design specifications.
Contract Administration
Report
Before inviting contractors, you must decide if an Architect is required to administer your construction contract. We provide assistance in negotiating contracts with preferred builders or arranging competitive tendering. Our expertise covers tender management and advisory services, enabling clients to navigate contract administration efficiently while maintaining professional oversight throughout the project lifecycle.
Site / Contract Administration
Report
We provide professional oversight of your construction contract, managing site meetings and certifying completed work. Alternatively, we can participate only at pivotal moments or offer our assistance on an ad hoc basis, depending on your requirements. Each engagement is carefully structured to ensure you receive the exact level of support desired.
