We had a very positive experience working with the BuildTeam throughout the design phase of our back extension in a conservation area. John McNally has been very professional, extremely responsive and helpful throughout. John helped us with design plans, after many changes and iterations, prepared and submitted the planning application, assisted and advised us when the first application got rejected. We also received very quickly the technical drawings for the builders. Overall, we had an extremely positive experience and we really recommend them as they are very experienced and efficient.

We've used Design team for our ground floor extension. John has been fantastic throughout, very patient and our planning permission came through no problem. Highly recommend!

We used Buildteam to do our architects plans, John was very professional, helpful and patient and was there to help at every stage of the planning, he was successful at getting our planning permission through, which we were very happy with. Our structural plans were also drawn up in order for us to find a company to take on the project. John was particularly good at explaining elements we didn’t quite understand and made sure where possible to keep to the brief within budget, and if the budget couldn’t be kept to explain other ways round to keep our costs down. We wouldn’t hesitate to use John on future projects.

In the first half of 2023, we worked with Design Team on our plan to build a single storey extension and internal renovations of a garden maisonette in West London. We received outstanding service and support from Design Team, from the day we first contacted them to the last day of the application to planning permission. We chose Design Team for two reasons. First, their package for the design, structural calculations, planning applications and party wall notices are ideal to avoid contracting multiple service providers. Second, the separation of the design process from the building work allows for the selection of other competitive builders. Special thank you goes to John McNally. He is highly professional, courteous, responsive and a good listener. He fully grasped what our plans were and he accommodated our subsequent changes with an extremely cooperative spirit. I fully recommend Design Team and John to prospective houseowners with renovation plans.

Thank you for choosing Design Team. We are thrilled to hear how satisfied you were with the process of planning your single storey extension and internal renovations! It is our goal to make every building plan and project a worry-free, seamless process. We are so glad we could tick every box for you! Thank you again for your wonderful support.

We have been working with Design Team on a house project for a rear and side extension that has just gained planning approval. Working with Santa Datta as architectural designer has been excellent and she has been very receptive to all our comments and changes in the design process. The fixed fee design package removes uncertainty and encompasses all the you need in terms of design, planning requirements, and ability to tender a detailed specification. The Company also has other key staff to assist e.g. in Party Wall Notices, Landscaping and they have also been very helpful. This has all made the complex process much easier for us in advancing our project.

I first met the Design Team at a property show and spoke to David Abimbola about my thoughts of converting a house into flats. With our initial meeting he started coming up with ideas and suggestions e.g., we could apply for a pre-application first to get the initial thoughts from the council on the idea before progressing to a full application, I didn't even know that there was such a thing as a pre-app. I immediately realised that David was the right person to help me with this project. Since then, David has managed to get planning approval to convert my house into 2 flats and I am now looking at progressing this to the next stages with him and his team. I am also speaking to David about other projects and have recommended him to others.

We are also very pleased to hear that you have recommended our services to others. We look forward to continuing to work with you in the future.

I would definitely recommend Design Team and use them again. David was fantastic and kept us updated throughout the process. We had another designer to begin with who didn't impress us quite as much as David (hence why I have given 4 stars) but on the whole they were brilliant.

Comment from Design Team:

Thank you for your review. We're so glad to hear that David was able to provide you with a great service. We are sorry to hear that the other designer you had to begin with did not impress you, but we are glad that David was able to provide you with the results you were looking for. Thank you for your recommendation and we hope to be able to work with you again in the future!

Design Team were excellent from start to finish. We decided to go with them as they offered one point of contact (we had Steven as our designer) and it was very helpful to sit down with him to discuss our brief in more detail at the measured survey. They secured planning permission for our loft conversion, 1st floor extension and garage conversion. We particularly valued their integrated, fixed fee package and not having to employ a separate structural engineer streamlined the process. As the end of the design process they produced a detailed schedule of works which we were able to send to our shortlisted contractors for tender pricing. They were also very helpful and responsive during the build assisting with queries and providing additional information that was requested by Building Control. Highly recommended.
