Generally we charge for our time and services as a fixed fee.
Only the smallest projects and additional services mid-project would be invoiced on a time charge basis.
Therefore, if the scope of your project does not change, our fees will remain as a fixed amount from the start of the project to completion.
Typically our fees would fall within the range of 5-15% of the project build cost depending upon the size and complexity of the project and whether it's a new build or works to an existing property.
