[Balraj Appadu]

Does anyone know of a good architect, AT and SE near Cambridge for my timberframe on a slab new build near Cambridge?

Thank you all

Welcome @Balraj Appadu. I am building in Cambridge. You can't throw a stone without hitting an architect in Cambridge it seems. Loads of them to choose from, although they tend to be at the top end price-wise. It depends if your after full service and expensive (£75+VAT per hour and upwards), in which case you have lots to meet and review. I am sorry to say I haven't come across an independent AT in Cambridge. For my build, my architect lives in Wales. 

 

For SE, sadly I can only tell you which engineering firm not to use (the one I used for my drainage calculations). In my experience, an SE will generally come with the architect or AT you choose. They usually have their favoured ones to use. And SE's don't need to be local as they don't visit the site but instead work from drawings (again from my experience).

 

If you can describe what service you're after and the type of project, I might be able to give you a few ideas to start you off.

12 Years ago the SE we used for our build (between Huntingdon and Kettering) was Geoffrey Thompson at T&F Design in Saffron Walden. I don't know if he's still there.
