Timing and budget for your project will be discussed before preparation of initial proposals.<br> </p> <p><b>The Planning Process</b><br> </p> <p>You are obliged to comply with legislation such as planning building regulations and health and safety consents. These are all matters on which we can advise, often dealing with the various Authorities on your behalf.<br> </p> <p><b>Preparing to Build</b><br> </p> <p>Once the necessary consents are in place, we will prepare detailed drawings and technical specifications to describe the proposals so that they may be priced by building contractors. We can also advise on an appropriate form of building contract to commission the work.<br> </p> <p><b>Construction in Progress</b><br> </p> <p>We can monitor the building work in terms of meeting the standards required. We will also help to explain some of the building processes and seek to resolve questions that may arise during the course of the work.<br> </p> <p><b>Our Services</b><br> </p> <p>We will provide a plan of work from which the precise services required can be selected. You may choose initial design discussion through to the final delivery of the project on site and we will tailor our fees to your requirements. Clarity and a good working relationship are crucial to the success of the project.<br> </p> <p><b>Value for Money?</b><br> </p> <p>Yes. A comprehensive approach such as this is an essential part of our service and value for money. The end result will lift your project out of the ordinary, provide distinctiveness, character, tradition or innovation.</p> <h2>Contact Us</h2> <p><b>To contact us please use any of the following:</b></p> <p>Louise Crossman Architects,<br> The Potato Store<br> Withycombe<br> Somerset TA24 6QB<br> U.K.</p> <p><b>TEL</b>: +44 (0)1984 640 988<br> </p> <p><b>FAX</b>: +44 (0)1984 641 146<br> </p> <p><b>E-MAIL</b>: <a href="mailto:design@louisecrossmanarchitects.co.uk" title="e-mail us">design@louisecrossmanarchitects.co.uk</a></p> <p></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="middle"><br> <span class="copyright">Copyright Louise Crossman Architects © 2003.
