Basement Conversion Professionals in Bramham, West Yorkshire

“After extensive research we appointed Wighton Architects for our renovation and extension of a 4 bed Victorian house. From the very start of the process, Stuart impressed us with his eye for detail and aesthetic consideration. He presented multiple concepts, all of which were well considered and met the needs of our family and 'wish list'. Once we decided on the design, he worked very well with the planning department in Waverley despite being based in Leeds and smoothly gained permission. He played a key role in appointing the building contractor and then as project manager throughout in collaboration with the builder. His approach meant that the timetable was kept on track and any issues with the building firm swiftly and amicably resolved. He brought the project in on budget which was impressive given the scale of work. I have no hesitation in recommending Stuart and Wighton Architects.”

“James provided full design and planning for our 2 story extension. He provided an excellent service, his design found a solution to a layout problem we'd been unable to fathom ourselves and we are very happy with the outcome. James was always available, gave excellent advice and won over the planning authority to give us what we wanted. He was great value for money and I have recommended him to friends.”

“Arranged for CAS to produce plans & submit planning application for an extension to our house prior to marketing the property for sale. We received timely and appropriate advice on the planning process and the layout & plans of prosposed extension. Very pleased with the design and the step by step pricing and invoicing for the work. Realistic guidelines given about the expectations of local planners. Kept up to date with other professionals involved in the planning application and how the application was progressing. Would recommend to other home owners requiring a similar service”

“From the way Orange Design first worked with us, understanding our needs, revising the drawings, making practical suggestions, obtaining all the necessary planning and building control permissions – through to the way they managed the tendering process on our behalf, approaching builders and then making frequent site visits during the build phase, it was all reassuring to know that we had a professional we could rely on and call on as the various needs arose.”

“We initially engaged ParkDesigned (Edward) as a consultant to explore options with our property. Their enthusiasm and design flair turned a dubious ill thought out previous extension into a light filled, modern and very practical place to live. They were able to manage the whole design and planning process which certainly kept stress low. Park also provided us with recommendations re builders which we followed and they also provided management in this aspect as well and although one or two snags occurred during the 9 month project they were dealt with in a professional manner and too our satisfaction I would strongly recommend them - they are currently working on a new project for me and that says it all !”

““In the construction industry, it is not often that you can recommend people without reservation but Niche Design is without doubt the most responsive and talented architectural firm we have ever used. “As a developer, Fountainhead Ventures needs an architect that can not only deliver an interesting and clever design but a clear and pragmatic one taking account of cost, sales, marketing and build ability. Niche delivers on all of these to the highest level. “In our role as project manager for private clients, Niche Design has won all our commissions. “Chris and Cathy Hunt of Niche Design are the epitome of professionalism as well as good, honest people full of integrity.””

“CK did the planning drawings and submitted them to the council for me.”

“I have used PPIY architects on numerous jobs both in my professional career commissioning social housing projects, and more recently post retirement for the expansion of a Quaker Meeting House. Partners and Associates have always taken pains to understand the brief and have produced solutions which are both elegant and practical. Cost control and attention to detail have been excellent and it has been easy to develop a good working relationship with all staff. Post contract attention to contractor defects has been helpful.”

“We moved back into our house at the end of October 2017 after a wonderful experience of having, to us, undertaken a major building project that began with Andrew Long Architects. At our first meeting with the Architect we discussed the primary objectives that we wanted to achieve in the project and looked at other jobs that needed doing building wise in the house and grounds. We rolled everything into the one project. Following on from that first meeting the Architect then came back with his initial ideas which we found very exciting. The site of our house is challenging because it is on a hill and slopes top to bottom and side to side. There are some mature trees on the boundary. These two factors present challenges that were resolved through the structural engineer that the Architect brought in. The site is not rectangular but has some interesting angles on it which the architect related to in his design with the result that the new extension and rebuilt terrace work in harmony with the shape of the site. From our first meeting we were helped and guided every step of the way. At no time did we feel we were being told what we had to have and suggestions were given with regard to different products to consider when deciding on what finishes we would like. This enabled us to go and see the products for ourselves which really helped in the decision process. One of these is a big feature window which is spectacular. During a course of meetings when the design was honed we felt we got to know the Architect and were confident in putting our complete trust in him and the team at Andrew Long Architects to forward the project through planning, finding a contractor to do the work and project manage the build. All of which were done excellently. We are delighted with the results and have no hesitation in recommending Andrew Long Architects.”

“Thoroughly recommended. I asked Crescent Architecture & Design to create an office in the garden to improve my space issues when working from home & include some additional space for my hobbies. Very professional in their approach, listened to my requirements carefully and designed a really pleasant, light and spacious office which now gets used on a daily basis. Really love it; with great views of the garden. We have power for heating, LED lighting and home office equipment, plus a resilient high-speed wired data connection back to the house for optimum internet connectivity too (WiFi's just not good enough!). I've seen some of their other projects at the larger end of the scale and all very impressive. If i ever take on a selfbuild in the future it'll be with Crescent Architecture & Design.”
