CLIENT BRIEF
The initial discussion will be to establish the client’s aspirations, and how they see the project going forward.


SCHEME DESIGN
The next step would be to visit the property and carry out a detailed measured survey and also comprehensive photographic survey both externally and internally.

During the visit I will obtain information on local planning laws and requirements including contact details for specialist contractors and suppliers. The more information gathered the better the quality and content of the initial planning and design studies.


DESIGN & PLANNING
After completing the outline feasibility layouts, I discuss and agree with the client, and confirm a set of detailed requirements to include finishes and fittings. We will also agree a budget cost and a realistic programme, which will take into account the” lead in” periods for any of the client’s legal processes and approval from the local authorities.

At this stage the client can decide which elements of the project they want to undertake by them selves or with their own builders.

Should the client require me to carry out elements of the project management and supervision of the building works, then we would agree a fixed fee based on a detailed scope of work including agreed travelling expenses.


A SUMMARY OF SERVICES OFFERED
The client is free to choose any permutation of services to suit there own budget and abilities
