Custom Build Home Professionals in Bygrave, Hertfordshire

“Extremely pleased with the service we received from James at New World Designers Ltd. He couldn't have been more helpful, visiting us on numerous occasions to discuss what we wanted, offering ideas and suggestions and saying what was or wasn't possible. He also kept in regular contact throughout the whole process to keep us informed of what was happening. We will definitely be using them again and can't recommend them highly enough.”

“Our conservatory included a kitchen, dining room/lounge with no doors & a plastic roof so we were very cold in the winter. We contacted Building Tectonics who transformed our uncomfortable space into a very light garden room by taking the walls down between the kitchen & dining room/lounge & adding a proper roof. We now enjoy cooking, eating & relaxing in a great open space”

“Brosh Architects did an extension and complete home renovation for our semi-detached 3 (now 4) bedroom house in NW London. The level of artistic style, stunning design and bespoke comfort that Lior and his company managed to eke out of our originally very poorly built hovel is just plain incredible - every day since it feels like we've moved into something that would make Grand Designs envious that they didn't follow our project. We now have a spacious, beautiful kitchen as the heart of our home, a gorgeous, tall. full glass-backed extension with spacious roof (without blocking the neighbours right to light) with sunshine entering from all directions, a luxuriously spaced entertainment deck and 2 washrooms that are elegant, comfortable and sumptuous, All aspects were thoroughly thought through and integrated into our plans. Everything about working with Brosh Architects was a delight and a pleasure. The design phase was handled well with a deft balance of structural integrity, architectural vision and, most importantly, our comfort and needs all put together into a very reasonably priced proposal. The company worked with us and helped us through the entire process - the inevitable back and forth with planning (none of it due to Brosh Architect's designs by the way), the on-point selection presented of all the items that elevated the interior and exterior (nothing cheap and cheerful, nothing overpriced - just beautiful, good quality items to complement and enhance the design) and then the ongoing communication and holding-to-task inspection of the work of our chosen contractors and builders, including some inevitable changes where we decided on a few tweaks. It is possible to get architectural firms that ask for a cheaper rate and to get a bog-standard McCube of a house with no inspired design or peace of mind over any aspect of the process or work being done , and it's sometimes possible to be charged several times more than Brosh Architect's rate and still not end up with what you want because you're just another customer with a faceless firm (I've got friends and neighbours who've been through both). Since the architect's fees are relatively small compared to the rest of the work, it's important that you get this choice right (I truly believe Brosh Architects ended up saving us the equivalent of their fees several times over in unwanted and unexpected builders costs with their oversight and contractor inspections). We have gone through this process with absolute peace of mind and we love our house - our friends who saved on these upfront costs haven't had the same experience. The end result is that we have a home that is not just perfectly suited to us, a space who's dimensions just feel right but also a house that is stylish and elegant and has appreciated in value way more than the investment was (as confirmed by several agents we've invited along since).”

“We approached JW Design with our brief and an extremely tight deadline which they were able to deliver against. Joe was personable in approach and made sure the design created was based on our needs. He added a lot of value by offering alternative designs and ways of thinking about using the space which we feel would not have been the case with other architects which we approached. This progressive nature and eye for detail went beyond just the plan designs throughout the build as Joe wanted to be involved throughout the project. The return visits and time spent with our builder meant that nothing was missed (and no shortcuts achieved!). We highly recommend, might be more than expensive than your average but the value is there.”

“I've worked with AD Practice on a number of projects and the quality of their work and communication is outstanding. They are clever problem solvers with an innovative and sustainable approach to design and construction that is a credit to them.”

“Seth did a great job on our planning application for a 4 bedroom renovation in South East London. He provided clear timelines and demonstrated careful control over the budget ensuring the programme was on time. I'd recommend Seth White Architects to anyone looking to provide some creative flair to their household planning applications with a close and careful project management approach.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Samir throughout our project. He made everything appear easy and definitely gave us a good idea of all the options available to us. Very professional and ensured our project was being developed to plan.”

“Anthony of Inhabit Architecture provided a very high quality service when we required an architect to assist in a reworking of the ground floor of our semi detached. He was methodical in his approach and helped us develop the design that we were seeking by providing options and helping guide towards an effective design. He took on board almost throw-away comments and integrated them into the solution to ensure that even the smaller considerations were incorporated. We also requested a Project Management service and that helped reduce our stress levels during the build. The work completed on time and as expected. There were a couple of contingency costs but nothing that we could have expected Inhabit to predict. Every visitor praises the layout and the quality of our house. I would recommend Inhabit Architecture very strongly.”

“We worked with Toni Moses Design on a 5500sq ft listed barn conversion and a central Cambridge project of three contemporary mews houses. Toni has a great eye adding value through design. Contractors commended the accuracy and attention to detail in technical drawings and both schemes were delivered on budget.”
