Architect FAQs for Mayo
Architect fees for a home extension are €3,000 to €8,000. Full architectural services for a new build cost €15,000 to €35,000, typically 8-12% of construction cost.
For simple single-storey extensions, an architect is not legally required but adds significant value in design and planning. For larger or complex projects, an architect is essential.
An architect designs your project, manages planning permission, produces construction drawings, and can oversee the build to ensure quality.
Look for RIAI registration, relevant experience, a portfolio you admire, and someone you communicate well with.
An architect is professionally qualified and RIAI registered. A draughtsperson can produce drawings but does not have the same qualification or professional oversight.
