"This depends primarily on the location of your site; however, a brief site visit and visual assessment would typically cost between £150.00 and £250.00 +VAT in London with a follow up written report costing an additional £125.00 +VAT per hour if required.A site visit for the design of single beam over an opening (together with the necessary bearing checks) would typically cost in the region of £395.00 +VAT but can be more depending on your end supports required.
A typical loft conversion would normally cost from £750.00 + VAT with larger lofts costing more depending on your drawing requirements."
"Hi I’m based in Northampton and the S.E I use charges £420 including vat.
You’ll find prices between S.E’s will differ greatly, will also depend on scale of works."
