Costs and Fees<\/h1>\n

It is always difficult to give an accurate assessment of fees without considering the individual project, as they are dependent on the size of the existing property and the complexity of the proposal.<\/p>\n

However, I am determined to have the most competitive fee structure, as I believe every project should start with quality plans, at a reasonable price. This is why I will promise to match or beat any written quote you have received from anyone offering the equivalent service.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6Ijg4In19@” button_text=”Talk to us about your project” _builder_version=”4.16″ _dynamic_attributes=”button_url” _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”16px” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” button_bg_color=”#fa7f28″ button_border_width=”6px” button_border_color=”#fa7f28″ button_border_radius=”5px” button_letter_spacing=”2px” button_font=”Lato|900||on|||||” button_icon=”5||divi||400″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”54px|0px|50px|0px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ background_color=”#ffffff” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” max_width=”1440px” custom_margin=”-10%|||” custom_padding=”60px|0px|0px|0px|false|false” animation_direction=”bottom” border_radii=”off|15px|15px||” border_color_all=”#3c39e6″ border_width_top=”18px” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_vertical=”39px” box_shadow_blur=”80px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.1)” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”1440px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|40px||40px” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_blurb title=”Loft Conversion” use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_color=”#ffffff” image_icon_background_color=”#bdc1c9″ image_icon_width=”40px” _builder_version=”4.16″ header_font=”Lato|900||on|||||” header_font_size=”15px” header_letter_spacing=”1px” header_line_height=”1.4em” body_font=”Lato||||||||” body_text_color=”#898f99″ body_font_size=”16px” body_line_height=”1.6em” image_icon_custom_padding=”25px|25px|25px|25px|false|false” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”|||” animation=”off” border_radii_image=”on|100%|100%|100%|100%” icon_font_size=”40px” use_circle=”on” circle_color=”#bdc1c9″ global_colors_info=”{}” image_icon_background_color__sticky_enabled=”#7EBEC5″ image_icon_background_color__sticky=”#7EBEC5″]<\/p>\n
