Frequently asked questions
How much does a quantity surveyor charge?
QS fees are typically 1% to 3% of the construction cost. On a €500,000 commercial fit-out, QS fees run €5,000 to €15,000. Day rates for senior QS professionals range from €700 to €1,200. A standalone bill of quantities for a small project costs €1,200 to €3,500.
What services should a QS quote cover?
A full QS service quote covers: cost plan preparation, bill of quantities, tender documentation and analysis, contract administration, valuations of work in progress, and final account settlement. Specify which stages are included. Clients often want cost planning only; offer that as a standalone service too.
When should a client appoint a QS?
The earlier the better. A QS appointed at design stage can help shape the brief to fit the budget before expensive design work is completed. A QS brought in after tenders are returned adds less value. Quote this distinction: early appointment fees are higher per stage but save money overall.
