THE QUOTE

Upon the initial contact one of our architects will give you a call talking through your design so that they get a full understanding of what you want to achieve and then generate a detailed quotation.

SITE SURVEY

A full measured survey is conducted. It takes between seven to ten working days to produce the CAD Drawings showing the existing structure and layout.

3.

CONCEPT PLAN & FEASIBILITY

After all measurements have been done our architects will discuss with you what you have planned, we will listen to what you desire to create & look over any sketches you may have. We will then communicate whether it is firstly feasible and secondly how likely it is to pass approval at your local planning authority. We often send you conceptual sketch work just to make sure that we are on the same page

THE DESIGN

Our design team will then work with you to create that unique design you are looking for ensuring that we work to your budget. This process normally involves two or three face-to-face meetings and takes between four and five weeks.

SUBMISSION

We then act on your behalf for the eight week process responding to any enquiries and making sure that the application stays on track.
