Hi All,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to vet a few architects by having a sound them out chat individually and possibly doing this without paying each of them a fee for this first appointment?
I don't have any recommendations from friends because any who have used architects in the past have all had problems with them somewhere along the line and therefore wouldn't recommend them.
Ideally I would like one who is familiar with the requirements for South Dublin County Council but presume that the Council would not be allowed to either produce a list or give a recommendation.
I had thought about booking a [broken link removed] but it looks as if these are closely monitored by the Council and I certainly don't want to waste my possible one meeting through lack of knowledge.
I have had a look already at the [broken link removed] but am none the wiser.
I also don't want to pay a % fee and wonder if there are many architects who will work off a set fee?
