Home Restoration Professionals in Bradford, West Yorkshire

“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”

“Stuart Wighton and team did an excellent job in helping us to imagine and design a one bedroom extension in a conservation area. The design materials and spec was challenging and planning permission had been refused once before Wighton architects got involved. We are delighted with the look and finish of our addition and it feels like it has added space to our home, interest to the street and value to our property. Thanks guys!”

“Fantastic company, sourced all the best products for me, at the best prices. Very clean workers, reliable and trustworthy. Would highly reccomend this company to anybody. They sent regular itemised bills, so I could keep a track of the spend, they kept to the budget and quote, apart from my added extra's. Our knock through wasn't straight forward, as were a steel framed house, but they did it with absolutely no problems. They certanely know what there doing, I had a dead line, as we were going away, then throwing a House party when we came home, and they met the deadline for me. We will definitely be using them again for our next project.”

“Grant and the team at Grant Erskine Architects helped us with the design of an extension to our home. We were really impressed with how Grant took us through the project step by step explaining everything and working with us to come up with a wonderful home.”

“Architecture Unknown had the vision to guide us through a full conversion of a grade II listed building. The result is an inspirational combination of traditional Georgian features in the listed front part of the house with a modern light filled kitchen extension at the back involving a bespoke glass roof and window seat. The back elevation is a particularly impressive mix of traditional brick with modern glass and anthracite. The project was immense including full loft and cellar conversions, AU held our hands through complex relations with a myriad of professionals including party wall surveyors, conservation officers and building contractors. Much of the construction phase took place during the COVID pandemic which added an additional layer of complexity. AU were flexible and agile in an ever-changing situation and ensured safe working at all times. Their presence was calm, reassuring and professional. We would not hesitate to recommend them.”

“The team at transform blowed my wife and I away. The attention to detail and forward thinking shown made them the obvious choice for our stable conversion. As an interior designer I found it hard to find an architect that understood our needs in the way we live and use our home. Transform are the only architects I know of that use a 3D model as standard, which is a tool you simply can not beat for building and renovating a project. We are on the final stage of planning now (green belt) and look forward life in the new extension. Simon Milner-Moore”

“REVIEW (A) I used the professional services of Shiels Design Ltd for the internal re-modelling of a 1980s house to create a larger kitchen, a home office and a utility room without extending the existing property. The new design was excellent and fulfilled the brief perfectly. Initially employed as architects, Shiels Design Ltd also offered a construction service which was delivered to the highest standard. The finished project surpassed expectations, added value to the property and, most importantly, created a greatly enhanced living style. I would recommend Shiels Design Ltd without hesitation. REVIEW (B) I had previously used the services of Shiels Design Ltd (see REVIEW A) so, when I purchased a large Victorian house in a conservation area overlooking the world heritage site of Snowdonia, I had no hesitation whatsoever in employing their architectural skills to design the major internal refurbishment of the property. This involved the installation of a 3-storey lift, the creation of ensuite bedrooms, open plan kitchen/dining, the conversion of a 1970s style flat roof dormer to reinstate the gabled pediment and a glazed balcony. Plans were smoothly navigated through the approval process. I invited Shiels Design Ltd to bid for the construction work as they had previously completed my design /build project on a different property to the highest standard. We successfully negotiated a contract to complete the building package; this was the best decision ever! It is accepted that working with older period buildings is renowned to present unexpected challenges. These problems were quickly overcome as Shiels Design Ltd possessed the architectural skill and expertise which enabled a swift resolution through the care and attention they gave to the building process. The refurbishment is complete and the house is now restored to superb glory.”
