We can also arrange for quotes from the different trades from footings through to fixout.

Helping to control your budget

Apart from keeping to a budget with your house plans, another important factor during the design process is to ensure that construction costs meet your initial budget estimates. It’s interesting to note that the majority of expensive house plans equate to expensive construction outcomes. Indeed, Architects are often paid based on a percentage of the construction costs of the building project. So the more it costs, the more they make. Here at House Plans Queensland our philosophy is quite the opposite.

Fees

You’ll find House Plans Queensland’s fees very reasonable and are significantly lower than the BDAQ’s recommended fees for building designers.

House Plans Queensland takes into account what your construction budget is, your design needs, your site conditions, etc. and then provides you with a detailed, fixed price contract for producing your entire working drawings and energy efficiency reports. They are yours to own and you can put them out to builders to tender on. This will help you to obtain the best price on your construction project. You’ll be pleased to know that the team at House Plans Queensland has extensive experience working directly with clients and their builders – so we can facilitate services to either.
