Planning plus building-regs drawings for the side return in Milton Keynes. Planning and building-regs drawings done together, structural calcs coordinated with the engineer. £3,525 all in and the builder priced straight off the package. Saved a lot of back-and-forth on site.
Used an architect end to end on the Milton Keynes project. Full service from first sketch through planning and building regs to site visits. £7,025 (around 11% of the build). The design got far more out of the space than we'd imagined and they handled every approval.
