Architects on Bidly — frequently asked questions
Are Bidly architects SACAP registered?
Most are. Confirm SACAP registration before awarding any council-submission package.
How are architectural fees structured?
Typically as a percentage of construction value or a fixed-fee phase model. Either is supported on Bidly.
Can I get just a council-submission package?
Yes — post a fixed-price project describing your existing concept and architects will quote a submission-only scope.
How long do drawings take?
Concept: 1–2 weeks. Working drawings: 3–6 weeks. Council approval depends on the local municipality.
Will my architect handle the contractor appointment?
Many do — describe the scope (just drawings vs. full agency) when you post.
