BUILDING REGULATION DRAWINGS
At Concept 20 we believe detail is key! We provide extremely thorough building regulation and construction drawings and details, over and above the minimum required for building regulation approval & much in excess of what other Architects usually provide for a building regulation drawings, at no extra cost!
The additional detail makes the whole process much more simple for all of the parties involved:
Less queries from Building control as more aspects are covered with large scale drawings rather than notes
A more accurate quote from builders. Less assumptions will need to be made due to the extra detail. There is far less chance of being hit with additional building fees for 'Something that wasn't in the quote'
Much easier job for the Structural Engineer. I make sure to look at the structural design myself & ask the structural engineer to justify my proposals, other architects usually leave all of the structural design to the engineer which costs you extra time and money.
Less queries from builders on site as to how an element of the building is to be constructed due to a higher amount of large scale construction details.
Despite the additional detail, my fee's are no higher than what a typical Architect would charge for building regulation drawings!
