An Architect is a qualified professional registered with the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) and the Architects Registration Board (ARB), both of which uphold strict standards of training, ethics, and professionalism. Architectural services, however, encompass a broader range of design and planning activities. These services may be provided by architects or other professionals such as architectural designers or technicians. While they may not be RIBA-registered architects, these professionals often specialise in areas like drafting or technical design. Always verify the qualifications and experience of your provider to ensure they meet the requirements for your project.
Yes, architectural service providers often assist with both feasibility studies and pre-application planning advice. They assess your project’s viability by evaluating site suitability, planning constraints, and budget considerations. Additionally, they can prepare and submit pre-application proposals to your local planning authority, ensuring your project aligns with planning policies and addressing potential challenges. While these services streamline the process and provide valuable insights, technical assessments may require collaboration with other specialists, and planning approval ultimately depends on the local authority’s decision.
Yes, architectural services can create both planning permission drawings and building regulation working drawings. Planning permission drawings focus on illustrating the design, scale, and appearance of your project to meet local authority requirements for obtaining approval. Building regulation working drawings are more detailed and ensure your project complies with legal standards for safety, structure, and energy efficiency. These drawings are essential for contractors during construction and help secure necessary approvals from building control.
No, structural and heat loss calculations are typically provided by specialist engineers. While architectural services focus on design and planning, structural engineers handle calculations to ensure the safety and stability of the structure. Similarly, heat loss calculations, essential for energy efficiency and compliance, are conducted by specialists in thermal performance. Architectural services often collaborate with these experts to integrate their findings into the overall project.
