I have been defrauded by about 2 "architects" previously and I would like to be connected with companies closer to me so that we can have meetings and I can see them face to face. The previous guys did some work but never submitted anything to council, I need someone to draw plans for me and also see the process through this time in terms of submitting to town council.
It is just a verandah that was on the original plans that we enclosed. Its tiny and I can send you the plans and the measurements but it is a small job.

Money is tight so don't want to spend a fortune.
