Inception & Design Consultation

We offer an initial free of charge on site design consultation providing guidance on the potential of your property. Whether that requires extending the existing footprint, reworking existing spaces or a new build to achieve your requirements. We strive for innovation but in the most practical and cost-effective manner possible.

Pre-Application Advice

If deemed beneficial, a Pre-Application Enquiry or meetings with the Development & Planning Authority to establish the feasibility of a project more clearly may be undertaken prior to producing the required information for a full formal Planning Application. In some cases where the works are minor in nature, exemption ordinances may apply.

Measured Surveys
