Space Planning Professionals in South Woodham Ferrers, Essex

“I commissioned Ben to work on my ambitious extension project based on a very positive referral from a friend who had previously commissioned him. Ben immediately added value by identifying opportunities and enhancing the ambition and design of what I had in mind, whilst being responsible with the budget. Ben is a consummate professional, highly creative with a very thorough approach to the project that inspires confidence. Would highly recommend for any project size and complexity.”

“Roc haus helped us from start to finish and we can't thank them enough. They designed our dream family home, liaising with our neighbour to get a large joint application granted, which enabled us to have the 4 bedrooms we required. They also helped me get the structural engineering package in place, completed the party wall process for us, recommended contractors and advised on the contract once we had selected our preferred contractor. It was so helpful and reassuring to have them behind us throughout the whole process to make it as easy as possible.”

“Anthro Architecture designed and project managed our new build family home to the highest of standards. John was easy to work with and implemented our requirements effectively while keeping the design refined and contemporary. The end result was a magnificent bright home with plenty of subtle architectural detailing that would not have been achieved without John's advice. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this firm.”

“" Although we were happy with the location of our property in Southchurch which had already had a side and rear extension over 20 years ago; we had been thinking of moving as the house had become tired and dated. The layout badly needed bringing up to modern standards to make much better use of the space we had. We did think we had enough design knowledge ourselves to do this but in the end we decided to get the job done professionally and we are so pleased that we did call in Lindsey from Hedgehog Designs to help. She listened to our requirements and provided us with detailed and accurate plans of the existing house and several options for both the ground and first floor. Our new look downstairs will have the kitchen, dining room and 'garden room' opened up to become a super modern airy space. Lindsey's ideas for special windows in the flat roof and a large bi-fold will give much more light and a real wow factor. She has also come up with 3 options for an ensuite upstairs which was the other thing the house was lacking. We have opted to use one of the builders that Lindsey recommended and we know that the work will make such a difference when the project completes in spring next year. We would be happy to recommend Lindsey and Hedgehog Designs to family and friends." John & Tina Boswell”

“We cannot recommend Studio 40 enough. A great service offered from start to finish- from the design aspect to advice on materials to use. Kieron and the team were professional, personable and reliable. They listened to what it was we wanted and provided some new innovative ideas too, which enabled us to achieve the dream house we’ve always wanted. Thank you.”

“Excellent, reliable and kept me informed along the way. From start to finish Geoff was easy to contact and if he was unavailable then he got back to me with updates in a timely fashion”

“We really needed more space for our 2 boys and our existing conservatory area wasnt really working for us. Glenn came to us on recommendation and has been a pleasure to work with. Glenn totally understood what we needed and came up with some really good ideas and various design options. He explained clearly how the whole process worked and really took on total responsibility so we did not need to worry about anything. Now we will have an amazing new house with large open plan Kitchen Diner and Island unit we always dreamed of. Our boys not only have their own En-suites but now have the entire loft area for games and cinema room when their friends come round meaning the rest of the house is free from clutter. If you want to extend your house and actually quite enjoy the process - Glenn is the guy to use. He really cares in getting it absolutely perfect for you and making sure he gets the best he can for the budget you have.”

“Very professional and responsive. I hired this company to complete drawings for my loft conversation, also to make changes to the current layout of my property. I received my drawings in a few days. Very happy with the end results.”

“Having decided to extend our cottage, which has a Grade 2 listing attached, we knew we would need to get an experienced architect who had the knowledge and expertise in dealing with the local English Heritage Planning Department. Cheryl Appleby from Appleby Blanco designed our project and without her expertise and excellent communications, as well as working alongside with a Listed Planning Consultant, our project may never have got off the ground. It’s transformed our home and has given us the extra rooms we never thought possible. Thank you”

“Engaged Dean at Mill Architecture for a house extension and replacement garage on the recommendation of a builder. Job was undertaken with a great level of professionalism and the intricacies of the planning process where dealt with very effectively, leading to full approval. Activities were turned around in the times frames agreed and the overall management was spot on. Dean also engaged an Engineer for us to obtain the building regs approval and the resulting pack of materials for the builder were totally comprehensive. Overall very happy and would recommend.”
