House Extension Professionals in Brighton, East Sussex

“Our family bathroom was the worst room in the house and the last to get around to because we couldn’t work out exactly what to do with it. It had been used as a wet room and was essentially one big shower with a tiny half sized bath and we knew we wanted a full size bath but that was about it. We asked Martyn to help and he came up with brilliant ideas that completely transformed the space. He he proposed building a half wall to form part of the shower enclosure, this made for a beautiful shower and great separate space for the basin and pedestal which he built out of a combination of a small reclaimed sideboard and square basin, with taps coming straight out of the wall. We had in mind that we would tile the walls but he suggested making faux wood panelling. This was way cheaper than tiling and looks amazing with the colour scheme he chose. Martyn has an amazing eye for design, he genuinely listens to what he clients wants and comes up with unique, clever and inspiring solutions. I recommend him unreservedly.”

“Lois Skelding at Design & Lo was fantastic and we would highly recommend their interior design services. They also helped with a new plan layout for our ground floor to make our existing kitchen much larger and make the rooms open plan. Initially we were unsure about hiring a designer for our project as we thought we could do this ourselves but as we begun the initial planning stages of the project we found it overwhelming and didn't really know where to start. We found Lois based in Brighton & Hove but were so glad when we found she covered London also (as we are based in East London). Lois listened to exactly what we wanted for our new space. She recommended many design ideas and space planning suggestions that we wouldn't have even thought about ourselves as we were keen to maximise the storage and light in the home. We had seen the design she had done for an extension project in Balham and we really wanted steel windows also with open plan living and dining room. She included this in the design for us which looked incredible. However due to COVID our plans were slightly delayed and it meant we had to re-design certain areas because some materials had increased in price, Lois was on hand to suggest new materials and alternatives which help keep our project in budget! Another area where I was scared to be bold was the paint colours and then choosing a kitchen together with flooring and lighting, I found that there were too many options to choose from...Design & Lo definitely helped us decide on a final design and be confident with our final choices. I thought mine and my husbands styles were too different but Lois managed to pull a design together that pleased both of us which was fantastic!”

“We hired Conley&Co to do the full remodel of our three-bedroom flat in Little Venice. The process was very smooth as all of their tradesmen are employed in-house and they could control timing and finishing. They know how to make a space work for their client and do it with great style. Great attention was also paid to keeping to budget.”

“We worked with Caroline on an extension and open plan kitchen. She came highly recommended by 2 couples. As we had seen her work in person it was easy to see the benefit of using a designer. Caroline is very down to earth, friendly, and funny. She works in a collaborative way which we really welcomed. We had an idea of what we were after and what we could afford but we'd never have reached the final outcome without her knowledge, contacts, and expertise. It was money very well spent. We love our home so much and are thrilled to enjoy such a calm, clean, and beautiful space on a daily basis.”
