David Machell Architecture Ltd

I commissioned David recently to draw up some plans and elevations for a planning permission submission to the local authority. He came back to me promptly and was clear about what he needed in order to complete the job, communicating over phone and email both courteously and friendly. His estimate and the turnaround time was spot on and the drawings that came back were professional, and supported our planning permission submission perfectly. Would be happy to work with him again in future for any plans that need drawing up. Many thanks for your work, David.

I cannot recommend David Machell Architecture enough. David was recommended to me by a respected local builder. I am in the process of undergoing a bungalow extension which extends the whole length of the property. David did an incredible job designing my home. He drew up three options taking into account the brief I gave him. He offered innovative insights for the designs and delivered a final product fulfilling all of the requirements I requested.Professional and dependable. Highly recommended.

David is an excellent architect. He was very professional always available for advice, has great knowledge and ideas. He understood exactly what we wanted and would use again without hesitation.

David has provided drawings, support with planning permission and help sourcing structural engineering services that I needed for my home extension.He is polite, attentive to detail, thorough and knowledgeable. I'd recommend him to anyone after an architect.

David has been the architect for an extension on our home. He has been a pleasure to deal with and very professional. David has taken the time to explain things to us and supported us diligently thought the project. I would recommend David Machell Architecture Ltd to anybody.

David is a fantastic architect, with great attention to detail and was incredibly supportive during the early stages of my extension project. His ideas and drawings, as well as helping to deal with West Lancashire planning, including his referral of a builder and structural engineer were all great. Would highly recommend David if you are considering any building work! Thanks, Wes

David recently carried out some work for us including drawings for a porch planning application. David was great from start to finish, very professional listening to our thoughts and produced quality drawings which were exactly what we wanted. Our application wasn’t straight forward as we live in a green belt area and required an additional green belt impact assessment. David handled all of the planning application on our behalf and the additional work on the impact assessment definitely helped us achieve planning permission first time round. We would definitely use David again for any future works. Thanks again!

Couldn't recommend David highly enough. Extremely creative, knowledgeable, quick to respond and a genuinely nice guy.David drew up plans for our loft extension in Manchester, a space where we didn't really expect to have any scope for multiple options. However, David exceeded our expectations and demonstrated real creativity, presenting multiple options that all met our brief and gave us a lot to think about. Something that had really disappointed us with a previous architect that drew up plans for a single storey extension. David was actually able to help with those plans, coming up with a creative solution to a building regs issue, after my wife had later adjusted the internal layout.David also worked really hard with building regs on an awkward issue we had with a tight staircase, coming up with a solution that met our preferred layout. Will definitely use David again for any future projects and really happy to recommend him

We cold called David just over 12 months ago with a vague idea about some residential improvements. Shortly after he came for a site visit and was quickly able to give us advice about what was possible, timescales and cost.On appointing he guided us through the unknown territory of design, planning and appointing contractors. Then when we broke ground he was still hands on with us when changes arose and decisions needed understanding.We felt he gave us good balanced information when required and a considered opinion when we needed help. His calm manner no doubt helped us get our project over the line and we would wholeheartedly recommend him.

David has recently worked with us closely on an upcoming extension and kitchen renovation. He has supported us right from the start of the project, giving us various ideas for the space, provided drawings, recommendations on structural engineers and assisting with submission of the planning and building control applications.We would highly recommend David.
