Everyone knows what an architect does .....
1. the client doesnt want to spend the fees on a service they expect the builder to provide
why should they? they're just builders, this is where the clients representitive/architect should advise. Sure on most small works2. it suits the builders to continue the ad hoc, word of mouth, contractural system that most residential projects in this country are built by.... they will never recommed a QS to the client....
there should be a statutory requirement on every employee / employer situation to sign a detailed contract..... therefore if a bill of quantities and detailed construction spec and drawings are included its at the builders expense if the build goes over his quotation.....
it pisses me off totally when i send out detailed tender packages... the builders seem too scared to either price it or they stick a grossly overpriced quote in......
