Architecture / Design in Șanț

About this service

Architectural design covers the path from idea to building permit: the design brief, the site study, the urban planning certificate, the technical documentation for authorisation (DTAC) with all disciplines — architecture, structure, building services —, the approvals required by the planning certificate, and later the detailed design and construction details. The documentation is signed by an architect with signature rights, registered with the Romanian Order of Architects, and by certified checking engineers for each discipline. Beyond new build, architects handle extensions, loft conversions, changes of use, retrospective authorisation, measured surveys and preliminary expert reports, as well as site supervision during construction.

Frequently Asked Questions

What documents do I need for the first meeting?

The title deed, the cadastral plan, the land registry extract, and the planning certificate if you already have one. With those, the architect can realistically say what can be built and what the design will cost.

Can a plot without utilities be designed for in Șanț?

Yes, but water, sewerage, and power solutions must be provided for in the design, and the connections may require additional approvals. It's worth knowing this before buying the land.

How much does a house design cost in Șanț?

Permit documentation for a detached house, with all disciplines, generally falls between 6,500 and 20,000 RON in Șanț, depending on size and complexity. The detailed design is quoted separately.

What is the planning certificate and where do I get it?

It is the document issued by the town hall stating what may be built on a plot — height regime, site coverage, floor area ratio, setbacks — and which approvals are required. The owner applies for it at the local town hall, and it is the first step, before any design work.

What does building permit documentation contain?

Written and drawn material for the architecture, structural, and building services disciplines, signed by designers with signature rights, plus review by certified checkers and the approvals required by the planning certificate.

How long does obtaining a building permit take?

Preparing the documentation usually takes 4-10 weeks, and approvals plus the town hall's review can add another 1-3 months. The timeline depends heavily on how many approvals the planning certificate calls for.
