How Can You Choose The Right Builder…

If Their Quotes Aren’t Comparable?

Receiving several builder prices does not automatically mean you can compare them accurately.

One builder may include items that another builder has excluded. Different assumptions may be made about finishes, structural work, stairs, windows, electrical work or decoration.

This can make the lowest quotation appear more attractive even though it may not cover the same scope of work.

Our Builder Tender Service gives each contractor the same coordinated project information, creating a clearer basis for pricing and comparison.

What’s Included?

Tender Issue to Builders – The tender package is issued to experienced attic conversion specialists.

Tender Queries – Where builders raise questions about the drawings or proposed scope, these can be clarified during the tender period.

Price Comparison – The quotations are organised so that major price differences, exclusions and assumptions can be more easily identified.

Scope Comparison – We help you understand whether the builders appear to be pricing the same work.

Builder Selection Guidance – We provide independent guidance to help you make a more informed decision.

We used Attic Planning / JEA for a planning application for a city centre dormer attic. Process was smooth, Stephen and the team were attentive and we were happy with the outcomes

Great service at a very good price. We went through the whole planning process and really pushed to get as much room in our dormer conversion as possible and the guys delivered. We had some objections from a neighbour but the team dealt with all the relevant points and made any necessary adjustments to ensure we got the planning.

The communication throughout was generally great. There are consistent emails explaining at what stage of the process your application sits and what you can expect. That kind of information is great and a lot of Irish companies should take note of it!

Thanks Stephen, all that hard work is much appreciated.

I contacted JEArchitecture to get planning permission for my attic with a dormer at the back through my agency who is converting the attic. They did a great job and the planning permission was approved on time. The whole process was easy and stress-free. They kept me updated at every step and let me know what to do next. Joseph English is very polite and always happy to give updates whenever I needed. I highly recommend them for any planning permission needs.

Very happy with the service and despite my research into planning applications in the area, I received a more favorable outcome than
i expected. This was as a result of the architect's guidance and his suggestions

Delighted with how cost efficient and easy the process was with JEA architecture - all of Stage 1 design and planning was effortlessly taken care of by them with successful result (planning granted and we love the design!) and with care and attention to detail which means we were happy and then our builder could quote and can now get to work using the plans. Highly recommend.
