Your Enquiry

To help us understand your needs, please provide us with as much detail as you can. We have provided some frequently asked questions to the left of this form that may help with this.

Your Budget and Timetable

Do you have a firmly fixed budget? We normally design to your “Brief” and see what it will cost. Once you have reviewed our design proposal you can then make your budget decisions and readjust your requirements. Getting Local Council approval and arranging contracts is time consuming. Do you have a critical date for your project? We will go over this in more detail when we commence.

FAQs:

What are your basic requirements?
e.g. Number of rooms, area to be renovated, capture views, deal with council, crazy neighbours, noise, heritage etc.
Please make any other notes to assist you, and feel free to cross out, underline, or make whatever notes to further inform us about your project on the Basic Brief page.

Do you have any of the following: a Land Title or a Survey drawing?
Existing Floor plan, Water Board sewerage diagram, and Any council documents (e.g. 10.7 or 149 Certificate attached to your Land purchase contract, zoning or heritage listing).

Please bring copies to your meeting or email them to us. The more info at the meeting, the better! A survey of your property will be required, and we will measure your house's or unit's internal dimensions before we can provide a design for you.

First Meeting: How long does it take?
We can visit your site to discuss your requirements and take dimensions and photos. There is no obligation if you don’t proceed. Any work after the fixed fee is charged on a time basis. Generally, first sketches take 2-4 weeks after the survey is received; further sketches and other documents take, depending on your input, but say 4 - 8 weeks and a DA takes around 3-6 months to be approved.

Your Investment
A fixed fee of $198 inc GST for our first meeting on site, then an hourly rate of $290 for David, the principal architect, and $132 for other staff, & costs x 10%, plus GST. We prefer Direct Debit or bank transfer. Credit card payments attract a 2% surcharge.

We work on a retainer basis. Generally, architectural fees to get to council submission are around 8.5% of your budget.

We get referrals from various sources for which we pay a fee.

We look forward to speaking with you soon.
Cheers, The Paragrid Team
