Advice on getting compensation for an architects mistake? we had a loft conversion , an architect working for a surveying company drew the plans (£500) -3 rooms including bathroom . The builder discovered plans were inacurate and an extra steel needed to be fitted. the architect admitted mistake and paid for it. when the bathroom was built it was much smaller than drawing, 160 cm at the highest point .A shower could not be fitted as the architect had drawn and the sink and toilet had to be moved . It is almost unusable as a room and Very unsatisfactory . Only by fitting a velux window (which gave a few more inches head room) can you even stand up in the room.If we had known the room would be like this we would have put in planning application for a dorma window . The architects company have not replied to our letter of complaint asking for compensation . What is the best course of action to get compensation?
