Our Costs

It is not possible for us to offer a standard “all inclusive” fee for every project, simply because every project is different. Size, complexity and location all affect the amount of time required to fully investigate a site, or register a property, and therefore the cost of doing so.

Initial consultation & quotation

What we will therefore do before any work is undertaken is to offer you an initial consultation meeting/site visit during which you can tell us about you, your project and what you would like us to do for you. From there we will produce a personalised quotation for you and your project, based on the daily fee rates and external costs set out below. We do not have a city centre office, so our low overheads mean we can offer you a high quality service at a very reasonable cost.

There is no commitment to accept one of our quotations – if you do not, you pay nothing. If you do accept it (and obviously we hope that you do!) then we will issue you with a full Letter of Engagement incorporating the quotation terms and our other formal Terms of Business. See our Terms & Conditions page for more details. Our VAT registration number is 318651105.
