Initial Meeting

The first step on every project for us is the initial meeting, a chat to go through aspirations, budget, timescales and highlighting other points that need to be considered. This is also a great opportunity to run through your likes and dislikes about the property, any key features or things that could work better for you, getting an understanding of the style of buildings you like. It also gives us an opportunity to see the site and surrounding area. Maybe there is a key view you want to capture, or a space which requires privacy from neighbours, this is your opportunity to highlight these important points to us. We can run through this in detail with you and aim to answer any initial queries you might have.

Once we have a clear understanding of the scope of the works you are looking to undertake and the level of involvement you require from us, we can prepare a detailed fee proposal for you. If you decide to appoint us we will help to arrange a measured survey of the property and set up drawings ready for the Design stage.

We usually charge £75 for the initial meeting if visiting a property in the Winchester area, or £150 if more than 30 minutes away from our office. You can expect us to spend around an hour to an hour and a half discussing your project with you and give you a realistic idea of what to expect when embarking on your project. 

Alternatively we offer a free consultation at our office in Winchester, or as an online meeting, where we can explain more about how we work and offer advice for your next steps. Get in contact to arrange a meeting with us.
