Selecting an architect

As this is such an important role, which can be the difference between success and failure of your house extension, it is a very important decision when selecting an Architect. You should always,

• Make sure the house extension architect that you select  is registered
• Select an architect with an impressive track record of house extension projects, ask to see their portfolio
• Select an Architect that has experience in getting house extension projects passed in your area, this means he or she has experience of dealing with your local council
• Make sure your potential Architect meets your builders as they will be working closely together and need to develop a good working relationship.

Finally always remember you get what you pay for, if you Architect is costing less than £1000 the chances are that all they will be doing is drawing and submitting plans to the council. This is fine as long as you’re happy to deal with the builders and the local council's building control.
