Option C provides more than just a discussion—it brings your ideas to life. With initial concept sketches, you’ll get to see different layout options tailored to your needs and aspirations. This visual representation helps you make informed decisions and better understand the potential of your space, setting the foundation for a successful project.
Our design appraisal includes an expert site evaluation, highlighting opportunities, challenges and important planning considerations specific to your project. This insight helps to uncover what’s possible within your budget, minimising surprises later.
With an preliminary cost estimate and a notional project timeline, you’ll gain a realistic understanding of the budget and timeframe involved in achieving your goals. This information is invaluable for planning ahead and preparing for the journey of transforming your home.
We care about creating spaces that are comfortable, energy-efficient and kind to the environment. The design appraisal includes sustainability suggestions, giving you practical guidance on how to reduce your energy usage and enhance your home’s comfort—ultimately adding long-term value to your property.
The appraisal report gives you clarity and confidence in the next steps of the design journey. By understanding the site potential, feasibility, design possibilities and costs, you’ll feel empowered to proceed with the project — whether that’s taking the next steps with us or simply understanding your options better.
If you decide to proceed with our full services, the cost of this appraisal will be deducted from the overall project fee — making it a great first step towards creating your dream space with us.
Note: If you’ve not yet obtained a measured survey of your property (we can help organise this!) we would work off of the estate agents floor plans. Estate agents floor plans are not always accurate, so there is some risk here.
Here are 2 examples, the first one is for extension and alteration works to an existing house. The second one is considering feasibility for a small development.
Firstly, we will need the address of the property where work is to be carried out – and we will need to know some detail of what work you want to do. We can then confirm which of the below fees apply to you.
This can be done prior to the meeting, or you could choose to convert your Option B meeting into an Option C meeting when we visit.
