Design workshop
We can offer a half day design workshop for £300*. This works well for modest extensions or simple reconfigurations for family houses. Or a full day workshop for £500*. This works better for 2-3 storey extensions including loft conversions. We will undertake a basic survey and produce hand drawn layouts suggesting options. Because this is done in front of you, ideas can be explored instantly and what usually takes weeks can be discussed there and then. This results in an agreed scheme and a way forward. A large detached house will take longer to survey, so expect a 2 day session. Day 1 will be used to survey the property, Day 2 will be the workshop (not consecutive) please arrange an initial free consultation so we can assess the scope of works. |
(allow 3.5hrs for the half day workshop and 6hrs for full day workshop)

What to expect on the day
We will arrive, clarify the brief and have a chat. We will start measuring the existing ground and/or first floor and draw this up on your kitchen table. this will take 1.5hrs for a single storey extension or 2.5hrs for a 2 storey extension. You do not need to be present whilst we draw the existing plans.
We will then invite you to sit down for the rest of the session, whilst we draw out the options. this is your session, so we will draw what you need and well as provided some of our ideas. it's best to have childcare sorted to avoid interruption. we will bring our own lunch- cups of tea are appreciated.
For the workshop we will need a table and chair, good light, warmth, access to a wc and cups of tea of course!
We will produce existing and proposed options - hand drawn at 1:50. we will then take them back to the office, scan them in and send them over by email within a week. Payment is by cash, cheque or card at the end of the workshop.
