If you need any structural work or planning permission, you will follow the architectural pathway.
 
At the consultation, we talk with you in great detail about your needs, thoughts and wishlist. If we are at the property you want to renovate, we walk through it with you, taking note of the problems you want to solve and offering ideas and advice. We discuss your  concerns, propose solutions, answer questions, describe what you can expect, and what the next steps are. We record a detailed scope of works, that is yours to keep, whether or not you proceed further with us. It is an important document that will form the basis of your project.
 
At the end of the session you will understand clearly :
 
what pathway is best for you
what your next steps are
whether you need architectural services, interior design or both
who else you will need on your team, such as engineers, landscapers, surveyors.
whether you need permits, and if so, which ones
how to get permits
what the restrictions on your site are likely to be
likely costs involved
how to plan your budget
what the next steps are
what the stages will be and how long each stage takes
how to decide on and communicate your brief
professional advice on choices you may be struggling with (eg should I rebuild or renovate?)
