Meet with our Team
After you have made initial contact with APT one of our team will contact you to arrange a convenient time to meet you on site during daylight hours, to conduct a free no obligation feasibility survey. This will usually take between 30-45 minutes.
Following the meeting we will send you a tailored fixed fee design proposal, and where possible an indicative estimate for the works. It is often necessary for one of our chartered architects to follow this meeting with a design meeting at the site with any decision makers present to further discuss planning requirements and you statutory obligations.| Site Visit Meeting |

THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE BUILDING AN EXTENSION
James M. Beck
LIVING ON SITE MIGHT HINDER PROGRESS
The problem with living in a property during building work, apart from the inevitable noise and dirt of a building site, is that your presence might just slow the progress of the project. So it might be a good idea to vacate the premises while the work is going on.
One of the biggest complaints from the live on site customers dust & dirt.
Even with closed doors and furniture being covered by dust sheets, you would be surprised about how much dust manages to find its way into the most closed and sealed places.
Scooter Libby

- Ensure the correct installation of steel-work, electrical, kitchen fit-out, tiling, sanitaryware, etc.

THERMAL EFFICIENCY
Building Regulations specify certain standards relating to construction materials and airtightness levels that relate to the thermal efficiency of your property. This is expressed in terms of a ‘U value’ describing the amount of heat that is lost from the building.
However, it is possible to go beyond the minimum requirements and make your home super efficient in its heating during winter and efficently cooling during summer, and a good time to plan what materials are required to do this is during the design stages.
