What Peterhead Homeowners Say About Our Architectural Services Specialists
Got planning drawings done for a rear extension in Peterhead. Clear concept, accurate measured survey and the planning drawings submitted for us. £1,809 and the householder application was approved without fuss. Great value versus a full architect for a straightforward job.
Planning plus building-regs drawings for the side return in Peterhead. Planning and building-regs drawings done together, structural calcs coordinated with the engineer. £3,509 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 Peterhead project. Full service from first sketch through planning and building regs to site visits. £7,009 (around 11% of the build). The design got far more out of the space than we'd imagined and they handled every approval.
