All clients have different requirements,
time scale and abilities, so I am
flexible in how an agreement can be
formulated. My fees and costs can be
charged either as a percentage of the
cost of the work and materials 7 – 10%
for new work or 10 – 14% for existing
buildings, or on a time basis.
For all projects the fees need to be
discussed and agreed with the client in
advance.
