Hi
Am looking for permission to build house in Munster. Wanted something different so decided to go with architect. Agreed on fee up to planning. All invoices were paid. We have to resubmit a different design as his design was unacceptable to council. Now he is invoicing me for all this extra work on top of the 20k I have paid already. Should this extra work be part of original agreed fee up to planning? Don't fancy paying out any more as could end up with a lot of fancy drawings and no planning permission. He is very good but all this extra work is going to be very expensvie and I think should be part of original agreed fee up to planning. I don't want to be too confrontational with him at minute as we are at a delicate stage with council. Any thoughts?
