LINKNFORMHOMEOWNER PROJECT SUPPORTFEES & PROJECT BRIEFS
Most initial project briefs can be prepared remotely from your drawings, photographs, measurements and a discussion of your aims. We agree the information needed, the scope and the fee before you instruct us.
Your initial project brief ↓START WITH THE INFORMATION
Your initial planning advice brief records the proposed work, known constraints, identified risks, assumptions and information still to confirm. It sets out practical options, the decisions needed and a detailed sequence of next steps.
Site attendance is usually unnecessary for this initial brief. Where an identified risk or information gap prevents reliable advice on a particular issue, we explain the targeted measurements, investigation, site visit or specialist input needed before that issue can be resolved.
Where design is required, the brief records practical options and buildability considerations for the designer or engineer to assess and develop. Comparing proportionate solutions early helps avoid unnecessary specification, repeated calculations, redesign and changes to builders’ prices.
Making unknown conditions and options visible gives independent builders and trades a clearer basis for their quotations and planned checks. This helps reduce the risk of unexpected costs, overruns and disputes; it cannot establish concealed conditions or guarantee the outcome. The brief does not replace required investigations, design, engineering calculations or approvals.
LINKNFORM provides advisory support. Physical construction is carried out by independent builders and trades.
WHERE FURTHER INFORMATION IS NEEDED
A visit or survey is recommended where a specific risk or information gap needs on-site evidence. Its purpose, provider, outputs and separate fee are agreed before booking. It is not an automatic first step or a free builder’s quotation visit.
Review the identified issue on site and gather the information needed to advise on the next step. The visit is scoped around the specific question or risk.
Agree the survey needed for your project, the areas it covers and the measurements, records or report you will receive.
SERVICE FEES
Every service is individually priced and sold separately. Choose the support you need; buying one service does not require you to buy another.
An initial project brief with scope, identified risks, practical options, information gaps and detailed next steps. Usually prepared remotely; any specialist design or investigation needed is identified.
An itemised cost plan, visible allowances and information to help compare builders’ quotations.
Key project stages, specialist inputs, information required and decision deadlines.
Support to gather and compare quotations, record agreed checks and organise appointment information within the commissioned scope.

BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Before an appointment or any work starts, your proposal confirms:
Construction costs, specialist consultant charges and application fees are shown separately from LINKNFORM’s own fees. Any additional work is priced and agreed before it begins.
Tell us the property location, your aims and what drawings, photographs or information you have. We will confirm the scope and fee for your initial brief, and explain whether any targeted further information is needed.
