            If only we had had a way of locating and employing tradesmen before the Internet was invented.0

            Depends how much you want to spend. I'm meeting one on Wednesdsy but he's unlikely to be cheap

            Much better off getting a Surveyor who can design decent domestic extensions and work with you for a reasonable fee than an Architect who will spend your money without thinking twice about budgets and just thinking how it can develop his portfolio.0

            There are "space planners" who work for companies organising office space. Tend to be drop out architects but can do all the drawings etc.. If you can find one who will do it in his spare time it could be worth looking at. We have used one but he's not local to Bromley.0

            I'm not an architect but I can design almost anything. Designed and built a workshop with all services (obviously checked out by those who know) single handed, even the foundations. 15 years on and no faults have appeared. I had no experience beforehand.
 ps. I'll do your plans for free.0

            thanks for all the replies
 tbh the last couple weeks have done my head in
 have
 upstairs
 3 bedrooms
 14ft x 11ft
 6ft5 x 8,3ft
 8ft2x10ft
 and 6ft2x 5ft3 bathroom
 am trying to find a way to make bathroom one of the smaller bedrooms bigger
 downstairs not a problem as could do an extension and downstairs would be sheffield wednesday
 could have with extension
 11ftx11 dining room
 13ft2x 16ft4 living room
 and 13ft 9ft kitchen including toilet
 roughly
 if i do the extension though i feel its out of propotion
 large downstairs small upstairs
 the wife thinks after seeing the downstairs people would think the bathroom was an ensuite
 lots of ideas running through my head
 ie have the extension and put bedroom/bathroom downstairs
 then upstairs could be
 14ft11 bed
 13ft10 bed
 and 10ft x6ft2 bath
 we do need 3 beds
 have looked through yellow pages and seen some architects do an intial free consultation but would i need to specify my requirements
 thx all0
