Drafting Professionals in Marlow, Buckinghamshire

“NineTen Architects were excellent from start to finish on our project - a loft conversion to a bungalow, adding master bedroom with glazed end wall, ensuite bathroom and dressing area. There were also modifications to the Ground Floor, removing a wall and (obviously) adding a staircase. Jeremy and James visited us and talked through the potential of the space, helping us to understand what was and wasn't possible, down to the details and materials. NineTen were very good at communicating and sent us a number of sets of drawings for comment, taking on board our requests at each stage and revising the drawings all the way up to a detailed set suitable for the builder to use for construction. Overall, completely satisfied and happy with the service we got from NineTen Architects and would recommend them to anyone.”

“Our request handled professionally and in a timely manner even with the current situation. Highly recommended for their architectural and consultation services. Will definitely use them again for any such project.”

“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”

“VC Design was recommended to me and I would do the same without hesitation. We contacted Veronica about drawing up plans for our ground floor extension and although conceptually we had a clear idea of what we wanted to she was invaluable in advising us how to best use the space and our options within the parameters of planning. She also contacted previous clients and arranged for us to see the work they had done, this allowed us to see first hand some of the ideas we had discussed. Veronica submitted the planning application and we have now received our approval - a job very well done.”

“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 are at the beginning if our journey with Michael. He is dedicated to the project and also passionate about his work. He has worked closely with us through the design process. His ideas have been excellent and have made him stand out from other architects. He will be working with us, project managing the work.”

“We engaged Lee to help us design and build a ground floor kitchen extension. Lee's knowledge of this type of work was excellent and he was able to explain technical terms to us clearly. Lee drew on his experience of similar projects, including a useful photographic portfolio, together with his own imagination and sense of good design, to help us settle on an extension that was sympathetic to the age and features of the house ( Victorian/Edwardian terrace) while providing the space and utility we desired. He suggested we consider an apex roof design rather than the traditional sloping or flat roof. This increase our internal space and gave the exterior a unique and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Lee managed the tendering process efficiently resulting in us appointing an excellent building contractor. Lee project managed the design aspects with the builder, ensuring deadlines and budgets were met. Lee negotiated with Planning Officers, structural engineers and Building Control officers to keep the project moving along smoothly. Lee worked very well with our family and the various building professionals involved in the project. His fees were absolutely transparent and outstanding value for money. Lee was always available by phone , email or to visit and talk through any questions we had about the project. It was a pleasure to work with Lee who provided outstanding service to us and I would readily recommend him potential clients.”

“Fantastic to work with and always very calm when dealing with. Has great ideas and is open to suggestions. When issues arose he explained in a very easy to understand way which made sense. Great to work with.”

“Fineline Architechs offered us a fantastic service. We live in a Tudor, listed building which required a great deal of renovation and a total revamp of the large parts of the house. Fineline delivered a fabulous design which was both contemporary but also sympathetic to the original ancient building. Both Katie and Chris had great ideas and where a joy to work with. They were also excellent at dealing with our local council and conservation officer to ensure that the designs we submitted would have the highest likelihood of success, which indeed they did as we had the entire programme of works agreed by the planning department. I can not recommend Fineline highly enough and I would definitely use them again.”

“A great partner from the beginning to the end of a project. Imaginative design, intelligent use of available space. Know what is feasible and collaborate well with contractors. Great ideas about sourcing materials, appliances, tiles, etc.”
