Why use an architect? Why not go straight to a builder instead?
Going straight to a builder
means you miss out on the important design stage. It sounds obvious but
builders specialise in building things and architects specialise in designing
spaces.
By using residential architect you will end up with a home that is right for you and that you’ll love
living in. You will also ensure that your investment is maximised and the
finished project adds value to your property – badly designed extensions can
reduce the value of your property. Your architect will also be able to guide
you through the complexities of planning permission and building regulations.

Resolved Question: David Tennant BBC Drama - brain damage?

Open Question: Does any body know of an ombudsman that you go to if you have complaints about a council planning office. ?
We have now been taking architects plans to our local planning office (uk) trying to obtain permission for a block of flats. The problem is not that we're getting turned down flat, just that they are asking for constant modifications to the plan.
We have now paid architects fees 7 times for amendments to the plans. Each time we modify the plans to satisfy the planners problems, they find a new problem. We now smell a rat and suspect that although there is no reason for turning us down, something is conspiring against us.
If they said no never, then that would be that, but they don't. They just keep making changes. The problem is that they can't tell us about every problem they have at once, just one at a tim. This is costing thousands in architects fees.
We now want to complain, but don't know who to complain who.
Does anybody know of a body that oversees planning offices?
Thanks for anyones help in advance.
