Compliance snapshot

All work must satisfy the New Zealand Building Code and Marlborough District Council bylaws. Professionals listed on ArchiPro hold appropriate licences or chartered status, giving you confidence when lodging building or resource consents.

Budgeting for professional services

Fees vary by scope, complexity and project value. As a rule of thumb:

• Structural engineering: 1–2% of construction cost
• Project management: 4–8% depending on contract type
• Quantity surveying: 0.5–1% plus disbursements
• Specialist reports (geotech, energy, safety): quoted lump sums

Request multiple quotes through ArchiPro to benchmark pricing. Detailed briefs and early engagement usually reduce total spend.
