We want you to be an active participant in the design process. We welcome candid feedback. It is very important to us that our clients trust that we have have their best interests in mind throughout the project.

STAGE FOUR
Detail Design
The design is worked up to ensure that it is fully compliant with Building Regulations. At this stage, it may be necessary to appoint other consultants (Structural engineers, Party Wall Surveyors). Along with working drawings, we prepare outline specification documents, cost information and project strategies for tendering by potential contractors.

STAGE FIVE
Construction Phase
Once a price and contractor has been appointed, we will set up a standard form of building contract, between the client and the main contractor.
We then work with the builder and subcontractors, in accordance with the construction programme. This stage involves resolving design queries, as they arise, over the course of the project. Good communication ensures that the vision created by client and architect is realised.

We will instruct the building contractor to carry-out any remedial works that may be necessary, before client handover.

Post Contract Monitoring
On completion of a project, the clients will occasionally request that we evaluate the building’s performance when they are in residence. We can then advise if any alterations, or improvements are necessary.
