Posted on November 20, 2022 by Oliver Dempsey

New Build House Cost Survey

For anyone who has a plot of suitable land, they may wish to build a new house instead of buying an existing house. The advantages with building a new house is that you can build it to your own unique requirements in terms of design and size subject to the planning laws.

A while ago we carried out a new build house cost survey with some tradesmen on Tradesmen.ie. In our survey, the question was how much would it cost excluding VAT to build a 150 m2 new house ready to furnish? We also asked them for any hints or tips they would have in order to have the best experience.  We have included some of the responses below:-

Architect Cost Survey 2022-2023

Posted on November 12, 2022 by Oliver Dempsey

Architect Cost Survey 2022-2023

There are many reasons to consider an architect for your new build, extension, attic conversation or renovation.  An architect has the knowledge and experience to design, co-ordinate and manage your building project. An architect’s skillset covers a variety of areas, ranging from construction materials and techniques to landscaping design, ergonomics and law. This diversity of skills allows an architect to conceptualise many design options while analysing a wide range of requirements and restrictions.

Recently, we did an architect cost survey with some architects and building professionals on our website to get an indication of the fees for preparing plans and certifying a house extension of 40m2 or more.  We also asked them for any hints or tips they would have in order to have the best experience.  Here is a sample of the replies we received below:-
