Initial conversation, brief, indicative fee and likely route.
Process
From idea to build-ready.
Seven clear stages, with decisions and deliverables at each point. You always know where the project is and what comes next.
Survey
Existing property information gathered and checked.
Design
Options developed around needs, budget, site and constraints.
Approve
Planning, permitted development or another route progressed.
Technical
Building Regulations information and technical coordination developed.
Price
Information prepared for contractor pricing and tender comparison.
Build
Optional support as queries and decisions arise during construction.
The exact route changes depending on the property and project. A simple garage conversion should not be forced through the same process as a complex new house.
Structured, not rigid.
The process exists to make the project easier to understand, not to create administration for its own sake. We define deliverables and decisions at each stage, then adapt the level of detail to the risk and complexity of the job.
Technical thinking starts early.
Buildability, structure, fire safety, drainage, levels and interfaces are considered while the design is being developed, rather than being treated as a separate exercise after planning.
