Fees are starting prices and depend on property size, complexity, location and scope. Statutory application charges, Planning Portal charges, Building Control fees, specialist consultants and VAT where applicable are additional.

Architectural services structured around project stages

You can appoint us for one defined stage or for a coordinated route from early feasibility through planning and Building Regulations. We establish the scope at the outset, identify third-party inputs and explain which fees are statutory, professional or specialist.

One point of coordination

We aim to make the process effortless for the client. Depending on the project, we can coordinate structural engineers, heritage consultants, arboriculturalists, acoustic specialists, drainage and flood advisers, transport consultants, fire engineers, energy assessors and building-services designers. Each specialist remains responsible for their own work, while we coordinate interfaces and drawings.

Planning applications are actively managed

We check validation, follow the application through determination, remain available to answer council queries and act quickly on proportionate amendments where they can help resolve a concern. We cannot guarantee a planning decision, but we do not treat submission as the end of our involvement.

From concept to technical information

A planning drawing package communicates the proposal for consent. A Building Regulations or construction package develops how the work will comply and be built. We make this distinction clear and can provide the appropriate level of detail for each stage.

Frequently asked questions

Can I appoint Horizon for planning only?

Yes. We can provide a defined planning stage and quote separately for later technical work.

Do you work with my existing engineer or builder?

Yes, subject to suitable information and clear roles.

Are council fees included in your prices?

No. Statutory, Planning Portal, Building Control and specialist fees are additional unless expressly stated.

Do you guarantee approval?

No architect can guarantee a discretionary planning decision. We provide professional design, evidence and active case management.

Can you take over a project already started?

Yes, after reviewing the existing information, permissions and authorship rights.
