An Extend Consultation explores how best to plan your proposed extension, taking into account its size, layout, orientation, natural light and relationship with the existing house and garden.
We can also assess whether an extension is actually necessary or whether your needs can be met by reconfiguring your existing space.
We discuss your home, the needs of your household and what you would like to achieve from the extension.
With your help, I take measurements of the relevant parts of the house. I then spend time on my own preparing floor plans of the existing and of potential layouts.
We review the floor plans to find the approach that best suits your needs. We explore that option in more detail, adding notes and scoping outkey areas in more details.
An Extend consultation takes place in your home and lasts 2 1/2 hours. I do all of my work in this time so you receive the drawings immediately.
The fee is €650, including VAT, in Dublin City. If you send me your Eircode, I’m happy to prepare a quotation for consultations outside the M50. Online consultations are also possible.
An extension is a considerable investment. Professional design advice before building helps you make best use of your construction budget, avoid costly design mistakes and get so much more from the space you are creating.
My aim is to find the best design solution without unnecessary building work and expense.
Better design. Less building. Better for the planet.
Delighted we engaged Eva for an ‘extend’ consultation. She helped us land on a layout that we love and having her sketch in hand enables us to move to the next step.
