About:
Request a quoteOpen communicator Proactive Had practical solutions
From the first sketch to the final coat of paint, the team was professional and super approachable. Emails and calls got answered almost instantly, and they showed up bang on time every single day. The workmanship is top-notch with a level of detail that actually blew me away—especially given the price, wich felt really budget-friendly. They stayed flexible when I changed my mind about a wall and sorted it without fuss. Honestly, the whole project went smoother than I could have ever imagined

Frequently asked questions
-
At what point in my project should I involve an architect?
You should contact an architect as soon as you decide on a project. An architect will present you with additional options, will help you to finalize the details and place your project into the chosen environment.
-
What do I need before I start building a house?
Before starting to build a house, you must have: a site plan, layout drawings, a fire installation drawing, drainage installation drawings, particulars of any existing building or structure that is going to be demolished (and you need to state how it will be demolished), and any other plans and particulars that your local authority requires.
-
What services does an architect offer?
An architect will either do plans only, or plans with project management. This means he will stay with you and help you throughout the building process.
