Dreaming of an extension, a new build, or a property conversion but worried about the cost of rejection? , Navigating the complexities of local planning authorities can feel like a gamble. Traditionally, you pay thousands in architectural fees upfront, with no guarantee that your project will ever see a shovel in the ground.
We’re changing the blueprint. At Dwel Architecture, we believe in our designs and our expertise so much that we offer a No Win, No Fee structure for architectural planning services.
“Our mission is to make high-end architecture accessible. By aligning our success with yours, we ensure that every design we produce is not just beautiful, but viable.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I still have to pay Council fees? Yes. While our professional architectural fees are protected by our guarantee, external costs such as local authority application fees and mandatory third-party reports (like ecology or heritage surveys) are paid by the client.
What kind of projects qualify? We offer this for most residential extensions, loft conversions, and certain new-build developments. We’ll confirm if your project qualifies during your free consultation.
Is there a catch? No catch. We are simply selective about the projects we take on. If we don’t think we can win, we’ll tell you upfront rather than taking your money.
