    Hey, just wanted to know can someone recommend an architect to do drawings for a one off bungalow. I got quoted €2500 for plans which i wouldnt get for 3 months?! surely you can get them quicker and cheaper.....or is that just wishful thinking?! Cheers!

    I got an architect to draw up plans for a 3 bed extension to a house, he done it all including the planning application
    He charged me 1400 euro ,
    I would shop around mate, the price you are being quoted seems a bit excessive
    Where abouts are you looking to build ?
    If you want to drop me a PM at some stage ,i can give you his details.
    He is based in the Drogheda area

    Oh great - the cheaper the 'design' the better. Even though it's the rest of us that have to look at your one-off house in a field, and pay for its servicing along with the other gazillion bungalows scattered across the countryside to maintain your unsustainable way of living. And you're complaining about spending 2% of the build cost on designing the thing?
