Garage Design Professionals in Alderbury, Wiltshire

“Proctor Watts Cole Rutter provided a complete architectural service for our Grade II listed farm house from discussing and producing initial design ideas and dealing with planning and conservation issues to fully project managing the job”

“Kennet Design were so professional from beginning to end of our extension project and we really felt we had a personal touch and that they really cared about our plans and vision. The plans that were drawn up were brilliant and gave our builders the precise information they needed to carry out the work to regulation standard - even in a way that we understood, so we could keep an eye on the build and progress. Thank you to the team for making our first experience of house renovation such a great one!”

“Super professional, honest and to the point. Easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any questions i had. Great design & really happy with the product. Look forward to any future projects we work on together in the future.”

“We have constructed a number of projects with Barclay and Phillips. New Build, Refurbishment and Extension projects. We would highly recommend this Architect. They listen to the Client, which is not standard procedure for all architects, and are proactive with the builder. All of our Projects with them have gone well, finished on time and on budget.”

“John took our ideas for a new kitchen extension and developed the plans and proposal so that we gained planning permission without any issues. John also attended the parish council planning meeting to ensure there were no issues at this stage. With his help and guidance a specification was developed from which we were able to have a number of contractors bid, going on to select one to complete the build. Although we knew exactly what we wanted out of this project we initially had trouble engaging builders before we started working with John, due to the unusual construction methods being used. With John’s expertise, advice and attention to detail on-board the project was completed and we have been enjoying the kitchen extension for the last six months.”

“I cannot reccommend John highly enough. His work is outstanding and I have used him on 2 projects. Should the opportunity arrise I will not hesitate to use again.”

“Nick helped us with the restoration of an 18th century house over several years. He was not fazed by any of the unexpected problems the house threw at us and solved all of them in a practical manner and with the minimum of fuss. He is very strong technically but is also willing to get his hands dirty and explore the nooks and crannies. He has an easy and friendly manner and worked well with the various contractors on site. He also has established good relationships with the local planning, conservation and building officials, which proved very important for a project of this kind. We would happily recommend Nick to anyone needing architectural support on a restoration project.”

“Steven White of WGADD has been working for us on the drawings for a small domestic project to enable us to increase the light and make better use of the living space In our kitchen and dining areas. He has always been helpful, approachable, professional and reliable. We are currently waiting for a planning decision following the submission of the agreed drawings and will be liaising with Steven for the next steps in our project. We have valued his expertise with such projects.”

“Imaginative & forward thinking. Work well to satisfy clients' requirements without compromising on architectural detail. Always willing to explain and educate their clients, including them in the process. Invaluable for completion of our project. Generous with their time and advice. Would like to work with them again and recommend most highly.”

“My husband and I have been considering for a long time how best to efficiently reconfigure our downstairs and outside space in a way that will work for our lifestyle and family. Neither of us has any design experience or skill and have struggled to get our heads around what would work best. We had previously done some research into architects/ designers to help us get something we really love, but found that they were hugely expensive and required a commitment to do the whole job for it to be worth their while. We came across residence, and it was exactly what we were looking for - a simple and cost effective way to get some great design advice upfront at the first stage of the process, without having to commit to a huge project, allowing us to explore and test different ideas, with really thoughtful touches that accommodate our specific needs/ the way we use our space. The whole process was done from our home through videos, emails and over the phone, which made it very convenient, and I was amazed by how much detail and accuracy could be gleaned in this way. residence has also helped guide us through the sorts of considerations we would need to think about if taking the project forward with regard to building regulations and planning permission, and the level of structural works required for different options, even contacting the Council on our behalf. This has been enormously helpful and time saving. We have decided to take forward one of the ideas we discussed with residence, and will be working with residence on the next stage of detail to get the level of aesthetic finish we know we wouldn't be able to achieve on our own. This whole process has really given us the confidence that we will end up with a beautiful space that works for us, and within our budget. We would highly recommend.”
