Services
Sketch Proposals
This initial stage involves a detailed consultation to establish your design brief, budget, and timescale before we prepare sketch proposals and perspective illustrations. We provide an estimate of build costs and offer guidance on the building process to clarify the project's viability. We also undertake pre-application consultations with the planning authority to secure informal support for your proposal.
Planning Applications
We develop the agreed sketch proposals into detailed design drawings for formal submission, sometimes recommending 3D photorealistic visualisations for planning or marketing purposes. Acting as lead consultant, we liaise with planning officers and coordinate input from all associated specialists to strengthen the application. We then submit the planning application and diligently monitor its progress throughout the determination period.
Working Drawings
We produce detailed working drawings specifically for Building Regulation approval, advising upon specification, material selection, and bespoke design solutions. Our team continues to act as lead consultant, coordinating all design and production information for statutory requirements. This stage ensures full compliance and prepares the project for tender and construction.
Site Supervision
Subject to project requirements, we administer the contract by preparing tender packages, issuing reports, and formally appointing the selected builder. We monitor the works regularly, supervise variations, and conduct a final inspection to ensure the contract work is fully completed. Our service includes a formal handover certificate and a six-month period during which any defects are corrected at the builder's expense.
