The Architects Design Ltd

I honestly can’t recommend The Architects Design and JP enough. We had decided to extend our fairly ordinary 70s semi and had imagined a fairly standard extension to go with it. JP came to see the house and really drilled down to what we wanted from the extension and what could be done to achieve that. He made us ask questions of our assumptions and framed his points so that we challenged them properly. What resulted was a design that, frankly, we would never have thought of but hit our brief perfectly. The crucial thing is JP was able to navigate the planning process with us, he made sure the designs went through the pre-planning process and the relevant changes were made in a way that satisfied the LA and our brief. That meant that when our planning was disputed and had to be defended at the council meeting he had done the prep work of making the changes that planning wanted and it sailed through with a unanimous decision.JP has been working with us closely to make sure that we get the right engineer services and makes suggestions that again, we would never have thought of ourselves. Our house is sited on a quite marshy hillside and the experience of our neighbours through extensions made the idea of digging and pouring the foundations quite daunting and expensive. JP discussed with us a helical pile company as an alternative, this proved to be the exact solution we were looking for and we would never have found them or even considered it with JP.If you are considering building anything I honestly cannot recommend The Architects Design highly enough. JP’s ability to take your ideas and hopes, combine them with his knowledge and vision produces something that you never dreamed of but as soon as you see it, realise you always wanted.
