Our fees

Understanding fees and construction costs early helps you plan confidently. At Wadhal, we aim for transparency, offering a tailored service that reflects your project’s scope, complexity and ambition.

How much are architect’s fees?

Full architectural services - from concept to completion - are charged as a percentage of construction cost, depending on scale, complexity, and scope.

We take on projects of all sizes with the belief that creativity and design focus are what make the biggest impact as opposed to budget alone. That said, construction budgets on most projects fall between £100,000-£2,000,000. As a rough guide, construction costs in London typically start from £1,500–£2,000 per m² for light interior refurbishment, and £4,000–£6,000 per m² for new build work.

Before committing to a full architectural appointment, we recommend starting with a standalone feasibility study. This is a low-commitment way to explore working together, designed to explore possibilities for your project, and ensure the brief feels right before moving forward. Fees for a feasibility study start from £1,500.

From adding an uplift to property value to securing significant cost savings through considered technical design, our input often exceeds the cost of our fees in long-term value.
