Custom Build Home Professionals in Coates, Gloucestershire

“So impressed with the service from PDD - very fast turnaround and highly professional drawings. Edd did our drawings for planning permission and our building regs, and all went smoothly. I’m currently sat in the extension he designed and it’s absolutely brilliant . A* service”

“We employed Milton Architects to help us with a major (for us) project in transforming our rather quirky 1911 house. The project took c10 months and we made it more difficult for the architects and contractors by choosing to live in different corners of the house while work carried on around us. We are delighted with the end result. Mike Milton brought many innovative elements to the overall design and equal emphasis was placed on the practical considerations such as construction, plumbing, electrics and sourcing. The project incorporated constructional changes, renovations and improvements, two new extensions and a few demolitions. MA handled the project management very well, first through Mike and then his colleague Ros Leverett. The project - having allowed for the constraints and problems encountered along the way (asbestos, rotten timbers, crumbling foundations ...) was very close to the original budget and timescale, and the interactions with the construction company exemplary. So in conclusion we are very pleased to recommend Milton Architects highly and unreservedly for any project remotely similar to our own.”

“Alice & Oscar of Noto have been excellent to work with in the extension of our London Victorian terrace home. They have been great partners in working to prepare a unique scheme that reflected our vision, while also bearing in mind our budget. Their practical and creative approach throughout the planning, approval, tender, specification and project management phases has been measured and considered, reflecting their extensive experience in their field of both architecture and construction. There is no doubt our project would not have worked out as well as it has, without their expertise. We would happily use their services again and recommend them to others.”

“We’ve been working with Thomas over the last 4 years. He’s got a very good eye for detail, comes up with creative solutions, maximises space in a city and is a pleasure to work with. We always pass his details over to clients looking for an Architectural Designer. The Build Bristol Group highly recommend Thomas Speed and look forward to working with him in the future. We’ve added some pictures from the most recent project we worked on with Thomas. In Windmill Hill, Bristol.”

“Ashleigh created a beautiful functional open plan design for our home. He was a pleasure to work with and nothing was too much trouble. On top of this he managed to save us money, his attention to detail is second to none. We cannot recommend Ashleigh highly enough.”

“We hired Ed after a personal recommendation to redesign our Edwardian cottage in the New Forest - not a straightforward job as the property is within a National Park, Conservation Area and a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Ed designed the extensions to fit in with the existing building, remodelled the floor plans, ran the planning application and then put the drawings together for Building regulations and the builder. We couldn't be happier with the results - Ed really maximised the space by suggesting a side/rear extension, loft conversion and remodelling the inside space. We now have a house that flows with the space we needed - an extra bedroom, extra WC and a large open plan kitchen/diner leading out to the garden. Ed made so many great suggestions, including vaulting the ceiling in the kitchen which really improves the space and light. The planning application was on time and without problem. Highly recommended.”

“We have enjoyed the opportunity to work with David of Port Architects on a number of occasions. His experienced, practical approach to projects and creative design solutions ensure our collaborations have been a pleasure to work on and successfully delivered”

“I came across Ark through a recommendation from a friend so I checked them out on here and found some good reports. I made contact with them and set up a meeting to discuss my project. From the moment I met the team I felt comfortable and re-assured that I had made the write choice. We sat down and talked through my ideas for the extension to my house and what I wanted to get out of it, from this meeting various ideas/layouts were sketched up and this provoked further ideas which led to a layout that was far better than I had originally anticipated in my head. Further meetings were held and the layout finalised ready for submitting to Planning. During the planning stage I asked Ark to work up the construction drawings and sections so that we could obtain competitive prices from builders. Ark recommended some builders and arranged quotes, we then sat down and discussed the quotes to ensure that I was happy with the price and intended programme. The works have just commenced on site and I must say the contractor has been great so far. Overall the experience I have had with Ark has been nothing short of exceptional, their attention to detail and ideas they have given me for the internal finishes and décor will result in a new space that is far beyond what I was anticipating when I first had the idea in my head. I would highly recommend Ark to anyone.”

“Sara was nothing but polite, professional and accurate when it came to designing and planning my annexe which has just been completed. I could not recommend Sara enough - thank you!!!”
