Sarah is committed, hardworking and creative individual who uses her vast knowledge and experience to provide a detailed, well thought and aesthetically pleasing design proposal. She listens to the requirements of the client and fully meets the brief as well as providing more options and providing her own input to help improve and enhance the design. It was a pleasure working with her. All the best!

Sarah is very professional we have used her architect services on multiple projects and she has delivered great results for us within the specified timescale. Sarah is easy to communicate with at all stages of the project and always keeps us informed of any developments but also listens precisely to all of our requirements and delivers them to a consistently high standard. She is a highly qualified architect and the drawings produced show this. We are very satisfied with the services provided to us by SME architecture and would highly recommend, thank you.

Sarah has been an incredible asset on my project to install a skylight in my new build property. She gave her expert advice on what the process would be, including handing any council applications and building safety checks. She also sourced contractors to visit the site and determine what sort of skylight might be appropriate for the space. She was professional and thorough throughout, and I would recommend her to anyone undertaking a small or medium sized project like mine.

We really enjoyed working with Sarah and would highly recommended her services. She helped us to achieve our vision for our beautiful rear extension and also supported us through the stages of construction with the builders. Her design and detailing capabilities really came through on the project and challenges we faced once construction began, were appeased. We admired the time she took to explain every step of the design and her overall patience on the project. We look forward to working Sarah again in the future!

We had a great experience working with Sarah. Her design skills to help us achieve what we wanted and detailing ability really came through, and helped when managing with contractors. Above all, she listened to our needs and always took the time to explain every step of the way thoroughly. I would highly recommend using her services as you will not be disappointed!
