Advice is available regarding:
A 1970's timber clad extension on a significant stone built house in a Conservation Area
The replacement extension in natural stone providing a dining area off the kitchen and giving direct access to the garden.
There is no charge for an initial consultation, whether you are considering a small extension or alteration or a major building project.
Prior to any appointment, a schedule of fees and other charges will always be prepared for your consideration and agreement, and may be tailored to your specific requirements where only partial services are requested.
Fixed fees are usually quoted (in preference to using a percentage of building cost basis) for work from inception up to building works commencing on site.
Thereafter, for work involved in the inspection of building works to completion, fees are based on a standard hourly rate. An estimate of the likely hourly rate total is always calculated and discussed for agreement with the client.
Additional charges will apply for disbursements, printing costs and any fees payable to statutory authorities.
VAT is applicable to all professional fees, relevant costs and disbursements.
