Site layout and percolation test/ report

Not much use to you I'm sure but my percolation tests cost 300 euro back in 2012.
That was apparently a good bit cheaper than the going rate though.
The arch tech did the site layout for me as part of the planning application

600 - 650 ex vat which includes digging trial holes is the going rate for perc test, i got three quotes in last few weeks

Is this the rate for site tests ??

€350-500 + VAT around my area
Excluding digging the holes

Nope, this is a response to the OP's question.

The SSA is only part of the works required, here.

The €350-500 + VAT you mention is fine when you are working from an existing site layout provided by somebody else and when someone else has surveyed the site and drafted that survey and provided the required layout plan with the information required for a planning application, position and orientation of dwelling, entrance, sewerage system, treatment, sight lines, landscaping, required seperation distances, contours and spot levels as necessary, etc., etc.

OP is the above what you mean by a site layout?

My Arch tech made this drawing showing where my water well, my septic tank, my soakways, my entrance, where the land was high and low on the site etc.
