Questions to ask local architectural services before hiring

Before hiring architectural services, ask a few key questions to ensure your project runs smoothly.

Have you worked on architectural projects like mine before?

Architectural projects range from small extensions in flats to full designs for larger homes. Confirm that the architect has handled similar work and ask how they’d approach your specific plans and site layout.

Can you share examples of your past designs?

Request photos, drawings, or details from recent jobs. Many architectural services on the platform have portfolios and case studies on their MyBuilder profiles to showcase their work.

Do you handle planning applications or building regulations?

Some architectural services cover extras like permissions, surveys, or coordination with engineers. Asking upfront helps you get a full service and a clear, all-inclusive quote.

What is your fee structure and timeline estimate?

Fees can be hourly, fixed, or percentage-based, and timelines vary by project size. Ask for a breakdown from an architectural service near you to avoid surprises.
