8. How much does an architect cost?

There are three principle ways we will charge. These are:

- A percentage of the contract some.
- An hourly rate.
- A lump sum.

The most common way of charging is by a percentage of the construction cost. In general terms we will base the fee percentage on anticipated time we will spend on the scheme and their practice resources.

For larger and non-domestic projects this will be dependent on a number of factors. The factors include whether the works relates to an existing project or a new build; the type of building it is; the size of building and the complexity of the building.

The fee percentage usually includes a full architectural service from inception through to completion of a project. However, in some instances you may want to only instruct us to undertake part of the full service.
