Hi All
Have just had my third quote for a full repiling of our new home, and each has told me that a consent will be required. Although one of them said 'most people' get a consent done, it's always been my preference to do things legally.
So now I'm looking for a draftsman who does this sort of work, who can get the consent approved. The price is my biggest concern here as my understanding from speaking to the repilers is that the drawings are a box-checking exercise and they don't tend to follow the plans all that much anyway. Drafting is of course an artwork, and beautiful design and elegant drawings are incredibly important in some areas, but under my house? Not so much.
Can anyone recommend a draftsman they've used or know who can throw together a cheap-but-council-approvable plan so we can get this underway quickly?
Or I guess, recommend a more expensive draftsman, with a few reasons why my above thinking is wrong.
