Architects / Wexford / Since 1982
RIAI architects for sustainable homes, schools and care buildings across the South East — drawn with care, built to last.
Ray Kelly Architects is an RIAI-registered practice at 80 South Main Street, Wexford. Since 1982 we have designed family homes, housing, nursing homes, schools, hotels and commercial buildings — each one planned around its site, its budget and how much it will cost to run.

Extensions & refurbishments
One architect from the first site visit to the certificate of compliance. We agree the brief and budget up front, design for low running costs, handle planning and tender, and supervise the build on site.
We agree a detailed brief and a budget at the start, then design to stay inside it.
Preliminary sketches and photo-realistic 3D views, with low-energy, sustainable design built in from day one.
Planning applications, fire safety certificate applications and planning appeals.
Construction drawings, specifications, tender and contract documents, with lighting and heating specified to keep running costs down.
Project supervision, interim valuations and certificates of compliance with planning permission and Building Regulations.
With our Pay as You Go service you start with a half-day consultation at your home or on site for €400 + VAT, which includes preliminary sketch proposals for an extension. After that we send a priced list of services (planning application, construction drawings, supervision) and you pay only for the stages you choose.
A rear extension of up to 40 m² is usually exempted development, subject to conditions such as height, garden space and previous extensions. Anything larger, to the front or side, or on a protected structure needs planning permission. Every extension must meet the Building Regulations either way; we check your site and tell you which applies at the first visit.
Before we meet, we post you a short list of the key questions for your project. At the half-day visit we go through it, survey the house and prepare initial sketch proposals. For a new home, a preliminary design drawing that works out space, daylight and solar gain on your site costs an additional €800 + VAT.
Wexford town and all of County Wexford — including Enniscorthy, Gorey and New Ross — and the wider South East: Waterford, Kilkenny and Carlow.
