Had a quote of £850 which struck me as a bit high. But maybe it’s not unreasonable?
A couple of days work (I assume a site visit, travel time, doing some calculations writing the thing up) of the time of a qualified professional with all the associated overheads (like insurance if it goes wrong and your house falls down) and that sounds okay to me.

Yeah seems good value, it's mostly not copy paste work

Drop Stephen Brooks a line. He is the architect I used for my renovations and be has a building engineer I used that calculated the steel beams for my knock through. It was part of a bigger project so there were economies of scale at play but I suspect you might be able to shave a little bit of money off the quote you have at the moment.

Not unreasonable.
I paid £600 for similar in Norfolk so £850 seems fair enough.

Decent price but can give you the details of the guy who’s done our work if useful

Think we paid c.£1k for two walls - one with a cranked beam. Just one site visit and then a lot of faff to deal with our incompetent builders.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a structural engineer in (east) London? Looking to knock through between living and dining room in our Victorian terrace and need calcs/plans for builder and bc.
