Sketch Design & Feasibility
To determine whether or not your project is feasible, we can carry out an initial site assessment and meet with you to discuss your ideas, budget, time frame and requirements so we can help you develop your brief. We can also produce sketch proposals for discussions with the local planning department to test the viability of the project before you commit to full project costs.
Architectural Visuals
MTA Chartered Architects can offer you a range of exterior and interior architectural visualisations for both residential and commercial projects, with a level of detail tailored to your individual needs and budget. From our 3D models, we can help bring your project to life, or even take you on real-time CGI walkthrough giving you a fully immersive experience and an opportunity to view a life-like representation of your finished project.
Detailed Design
Our team of technical experts have vast experience in producing highly detailed design drawings and specifications for a wide range of residential and commercial projects. We can develop the design to a sufficient level of detail which will assist the contractors in providing you with more accurately detailed competitive quotations during the tender process. An increased level of detail at this stage is proven to reduce the risk of complications during the construction process. Good design is a profitable investment.
Planning Applications
MTA Chartered Architects have a high success rate in achieving planning permission. We can guide your project through every aspect of the planning process and coordinate all the relevant documents required to support your application whether it be new building, extensions and refurbishments, including specialised conservation and listed building projects.
Building Regulations
Building Regulations set the minimum standards which are required for virtually every type of construction project. MTA Chartered Architects can advise you on the best construction methods and materials for overall performance and cost efficiency. Our team of professionals work closely with local authority building control departments, approved inspectors and external consultants, and have the knowledge and expertise to produce the full package of information required for obtaining Building Regulations approval.
Contract Administration
MTA Chartered Architects have experience administrating contracts from small minor works projects to multi-million pound commercial developments. Appointing a qualified Architect to oversee your project offers peace of mind. We make regular visits to inspect the construction works, ensuring the standards are compliant with the contract drawings and specifications while monitoring the stages of payments and build programme as the project progresses. Written contracts provide more certainty than verbal contracts and knowing a team of professionals are on hand to assist with difficult decisions on site can be invaluable.
