Drafting Professionals in Hitchin, Hertfordshire

“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”

“Chris was so helpful with his advice and guidance and very patient with our ever changing ideas. He made quite a daunting process of applying for planning permission, stress free and we are looking forward to working with him further as our project gets consent and we can start.”

“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).”

“I've worked with AD Practice on a number of projects and the quality of their work and communication is outstanding. They are clever problem solvers with an innovative and sustainable approach to design and construction that is a credit to them.”

“I hired Detailed-Planning to produce plans for an extension involving creating a kitchen diner and a larger bedroom. From the beginning they were very professional and had very good ideas to compliment my own ideas. They took care of all the legalities and recommended builders etc. I was taken to see a previous project which is very unusual but extremely helpful. They have been exemplary in answering any questions and even met with my neighbours addressing their concerns and allaying any fears they had. The company have visited on a number of occasions to check on progress and took photographs on a regular basis. I have recommended them to others as I found their attitude to be very professional but also very human!”

“We highly recommend, alternate options gave us insight knowledge to better understand ancillary extension of our Zouk Lounge Restaurant project saved us lot of time and money.”

“Anthony of Inhabit Architecture provided a very high quality service when we required an architect to assist in a reworking of the ground floor of our semi detached. He was methodical in his approach and helped us develop the design that we were seeking by providing options and helping guide towards an effective design. He took on board almost throw-away comments and integrated them into the solution to ensure that even the smaller considerations were incorporated. We also requested a Project Management service and that helped reduce our stress levels during the build. The work completed on time and as expected. There were a couple of contingency costs but nothing that we could have expected Inhabit to predict. Every visitor praises the layout and the quality of our house. I would recommend Inhabit Architecture very strongly.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Samir throughout our project. He made everything appear easy and definitely gave us a good idea of all the options available to us. Very professional and ensured our project was being developed to plan.”

“Fantastic - very professional and informative. Got the job completed timely and reliable. SKK goes beyond what is asked and helps you at each step of the way.”

“I have worked with Lees Architects many times and they always provide a high quality, professional service. As a building contractor i can always rely on Stuart to offer good advice and produce drawings on time and at a fair price when using him on our projects.”
