House Extensions in Harpenden, Hertfordshire

“Living through a kitchen extension on a terraced London house isn't fun. We both work full-time and have two children at school so returning at the end of each day to the property once works had commenced could be a little stressful; but PlusRooms protected our downstairs areas, created a temporary kitchen for us and were really considerate of the fact we were living through the works. They project managed the whole thing right from design, costing, adjustments, planning, build scheduling, (prompting us what to buy and when), right through the build - and we couldn't be more delighted with our new space. Living through building works is unpleasant but was made less so with Robbie and James' support and professionalism. We had the odd snagging that needed resolving at the end of the job, which you would always expect, so we are more than happy to recommend PlusRooms and may be using them again next year!”

“We were reccomended by a friend for whom Michael designed a holiday home in the South of France, which we were invited to and absolutely loved. We subsequently asked him and his colleagues to look at our house in London, which he redesigned beautifully. If we ever buy a holiday home, we will definitely call on him. Highly reccomended professional!”

“We hired Huntsmore to refurbish two bathrooms in our house completely, including plumbing in one of the bathrooms. Working with Eamonn was a pleasure, and the fee was easily worth it. The prices we ended up paying for the hardware were significantly below retail price, and total savings probably ended up close to the cost of the fee anyway. Even if we had seen no savings at all, I would probably still say it was worth it. The entire process was completely hassle free, and dealing directly with Eamonn left us feeling very comfortable that everything was being handled, without having to pay attention to all the details around the job. Would definitely recommend Huntsmore to anyone with a renovation project.”

“Refurbishment. Excellent service from start to finish. I was given an immediate quote along with a break down of all the costs. Work completed within agreed time frame and have loved my house ever since. Great job! highly recommend!! Thank you to Aaron and The Market Design & Build team.”

“St James design was recommended to me by a colleague in work when I was working in London I hired James to carry out a bathroom installation at my house in Berlin. On his first visit we went through designs of the type of bathroom I could have Within the area given. I wanted a bathroom that offered a calm and appealing approach whilst being minimalistic. I wanted to implement a clean storage systems that was hidden within the wall. James managed to supply me a beautiful shower with soft porcelain Tiles a nice glass shower screen and a beautiful bathroom suite. Everything is hidden away and it looks very clean and spacious. I will be definitely recommending him to my friends and family”

“Ryan and his team helped us decorate our 5 bedroom house and fully fit our 4 bathrooms. We were very tight on timings and Ryan delivered what he promised us at the beginning of our agreement. Ryan is extremely professional, he has an excellent team, he follows the work through and above his services are well priced in comparison to the market. Our relationship with Ryan is on going, we still call him for advise and ask him to perform tasks for us. I would highly recommend him.”

“Amit has worked and completed one successful project for us - Wardo Avenue in Parsons Green. This was a large house, we acquired on probate and therefore in a terrible condition. It needed restructuring, remodelling and extensions throughout. He was able to take the headache away, consult with all third parties such as the structural engineer, council and planning consultants along with bringing his own team of excellent builders to design, plan and project manage a 10 month project. Most of all, this was all at an amazing price. At tender, they were different from the competition because they offer a comprehensive costing and quotation which was not far from reality once the project was finished. They have a good eye for design, and with their in house builders and excellent sourcing, we achieved a luxury finish but at high street prices! He has an excellent source list and happy to do all the running around. His company works without fixed hours (so almost a 4th emergency service) and they are extremely personable. We could have had a 10 month ordeal, but instead it was the opposite. I would strongly reccomend using Aflux if you want to take the hassle away and get a team that offers real design quality and a look of luxury but without the price tag of the usual london interior designers!”

“MODEL Projects’ Stage 1 Creation Pack was the perfect way for us to assess our potential home renovation. We purchased our first house last year and our main aim was to turn it into our home. After seeing some of the images which MODEL Projects posted on Houzz from previous projects, and meeting the team at the Build It Live show in Bluewater, we were impressed with the passionate team, who are all clearly committed to what they do. They have been fun to work with and not afraid to challenge us when they think we are taking a wrong turn. The clear, simple, well articulated approach with defined and well structured deliverables at each stage set the team apart from their competitors. The process allows us to develop the project at our own pace, whilst maintaining momentum. Their management of the supporting services, such as party wall issues is helpful for us as we have very demanding and busy jobs. In taking the stress away from the process, it has allowed us to focus our energies on the parts of our new home which matter to us the most, like the kitchen design and finishes. We look forward to taking the design to the next stage.”

“We hired Zulufish to create an ensuite bathroom and dressing room from a bedroom, to extend our kitchen into our side return and to reconfigure our 2 downstairs reception rooms. The project took approximately 6 months and we lived in the house during the work. We were extremely impressed by firstly the ideas that Zulufish came up with when discussing the project, the skill and attitude of the workmen (particularly the joinery) and the way they cleared up every evening. They cleverly converted our top floor into living accommodation for us so we had the minimum disruption possible while work was carried out. Since our work was completed we have recommended Zulufish to several of our friends who have also used them and have been very satisfied. I will continue to recommend then wholeheartedly.”

“I have taken photos of Nic Antony Architects’ projects for several years. It has been a pleasure photographing their photogenic, well thought and highly finished interiors and house conversions. Communicating with Antony and his team has always been very professional and friendly. I’m always looking forward to shooting their next project.”
