House Extensions in Brighton, East Sussex

“Chris did the drawings our house in Hove listed above. He was extremely efficient, easy to work with and affordable. He has a good knowledge of the building industry and came with ideas to enhance ours.”

“NK Design & Build completely renovated our Victorian detached house in Surrey. They took full responsibility for project managing and completing all works. This included: - a new kitchen - a new WC - re-plastering of the entire house and repainting - Installing 2 x bifold doors - design and landscaping of front and back gardens/ driveway - remodelling of downstairs layout - removing walls, windows etc. - new roof The entire project took just 4 months and was completed on time and within the agreed budget (including contingency). We are really happy with the end result and enjoyed working with Natalie and Kelly along way. They are very professional and friendly and always provided design advice and options depending our budget. The project management oversight offered by Natalie meant we had peace of mind throughout the experience and avoided potential problems in dealing with multiple trades. This was a real value add service and was competitively priced. I would definitely recommend working with NK Design & Build. For Photos see the Victorian Restoration photos.”

“Each design that Three|Eleven work on is unique and never formulaic, Rob Beer works creatively to exceed both a clients needs and their vision. We have worked with Rob on a challenging new build in Rottingdean where planning permission was tough to gain and came with incredibly tight restrictions. With constraints on size, this project demanded a creative design to maximise both space and light, whilst also meeting the clients dream of a traditional Arts & Crafts style house. We are currently working with Rob to build a stunning extension on a Victorian house which is also progressing well. It's a pleasure to work with Rob, we receive the detailed plans we need and communication is open and supportive - we really couldn't recommend Three|Eleven more highly.”

“Stewart designed and managed a large garden extension and remodelling of our tired 1970’s house plus landscaping and garden office. We are delighted with the job and have been at every stage from the initial design concepts right the way thru’ management of the build. It was a pleasure working with him during a stressful time! We have recommended him to friends.”

“This is the second time we have employed Prime Living to project manage a refurbishment for us. The first was for a complete refurbishment of a flat for an older relative. When we were looking to redo our bathroom, we decided to ask John (Prime Living) if he would be interested in quoting. As he had previously completed a larger project for us we did wonder if our bathroom might perhaps be too small. We needn’t have worried. He was only too happy to quote and we were delighted, as we had complete confidence in him and his company. John project manages in a friendly but professional manner and his attention to detail is excellent with nothing too small or too much trouble to get right. He liased with our chosen bathroom furniture suppliers and resolved a couple of issues we had with them particularly when we had to send a damaged item back. In the initial stages of the project he researched various bathroom furniture, tiling and flooring for us emailing us links and setting up an online Ideabook for us. When everything was finalised to our satisfaction, he provided a detailed schedule of works with start and completion dates. The two main contractors who were on site each day were friendly, polite and considerate which was reassuring. As a woman working from home feeling comfortable about having contractors in my house is a big consideration. They even tried very hard each day to make friends with our rescue dog whose main mission was to stop them getting over the threshold! Although by its very nature the project was disruptive, John and his team kept disruption to a minimum at all times. When other contractors were needed John arranged for them to fit in with the sequence of works being carried out to minimise any delays. John was always on time when appointments were made and always got back to us efficiently and promptly with any queries we had. We never at any time felt we couldn’t trust him to get the job done and in our opinion he goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy at each stage of the work and at completion.”

“I engaged Sam to do the designs on a house I had recently moved into. Primarily, I wanted them to open up the downstairs to become an open plan kitchen/dining/living area. The designs they came up with seemed to me to be both creative and practical and have been done taking account of my tastes and preferences. My questions have all been answered and patience has been shown in explaining ideas to me - and, indeed, explaining why some of my ideas might not work. A willingness has been shown for working with another company hired to do the loft conversion. Everyone involved in the design aspect has been courteous and helpful. I would say that there is some bias within the company towards contemporary design although I am sure they are able to work with other styles if necessary.”

“We wanted some drawings done to show use what was possible with our house. Several versions were done in excellent detail and this gave us lots of ideas about what we will do when we have the cash in the bank. The drawings are of course only the first step, but we were very happy with the process (very friendly yet professional) and it was exactly what we needed at this stage. Thanks guys, keep up the good work!”

“We were very impressed with JVB from start to finish. We hired them to carry out a loft conversion and works to the first floor of our house, including inserting steel beams. The project was managed by an architect, and Joe seemed to work well with him. He was very clear when items were outside the fixed budget and stuck to quotes given at each stage. There were a few items we were surprised were not included in the fixed sum, given we had made clear to the architect what should be included at the outset in order to agree a fixed fee up front. However, this could be down to a miscommunication between the architect and JVB. Joe was very friendly, trustworthy, professional and responsive. He also has great attention to detail and seems to really care about doing a good job. Nothing was too much trouble and he made sure we were happy at every stage and sorted out any minor issues that arose very quickly (including coming out late at night with an extension cable to make sure we weren't left without a working boiler overnight!) We have already asked him to come and quote for our next project!”

“I knew, when entering my renovation project, that it was going to be a massive undertaking, what with a 3 storey townhouse. What I was expecting was huge stress; what I actually got was smooth, professional, considerate and stress free project management. Sarah at Pataross regularly communicated with me during the course of the 16 week project, she understood me from the get-go, interpreted my design ramblings into a workable and stylish plan and deployed trades that were professional, courteous and quality driven. I've never used this type of service before, but would definitely work with Sarah and the team again - I enjoyed the experience too. I've been recommending them to all my friends and family.”

“I am glad Monita helped us with the refurbishment of our house. Her vision and designs were amazing and she gave us very practical and affordable suggestions to bring our dream home to life. She was extremely patient with us and her detailed 3d rendering helped us visualize the finished product even before the builders started work. Her selections of paint, wallpapers, furniture and fittings were outstanding. The builders we employed were raving about her detailed drawings and designs and many of my friends who came home are in awe of the transformation. Monita was also extremely patient with the builders and ensured they stuck to plan and completed the project on time. This was above and beyond our expectations and we cannot wait to start phase 2 of the project in January.”
