Answers to a few of the questions we're asked most often.
We work across Warwickshire, Surrey and the surrounding areas, including Rugby, Ewell, Epsom, Surbiton, Kingston-upon-Thames, Wimbledon and Guildford. If your project falls outside these areas, get in touch - we're happy to discuss it.
Either way. If you already have architectural drawings or a planning application in progress, we can pick the project up from there. If you're starting with nothing more than an idea, our in-house design team will take you from first sketch through to a fully detailed scheme.
It depends on scope - a single-storey extension moves very differently to a full new build. Once we've seen your brief and site, we'll give you a realistic programme covering design, planning and build, so you know what to expect before you commit to anything.
A renovation typically works within your home's existing footprint - updating layout, finishes and services. A full design and build project usually involves extending, reconfiguring or replacing significant parts of the building, and is managed by us end-to-end, from initial concept through to final handover.
We agree scope and pricing upfront before work starts on site. If anything changes along the way - whether a client-requested variation or something unforeseen - we'll always discuss it and get your sign-off before any cost is added, so there are no surprises on your final invoice.
Yes. We manage the planning process in-house, from initial drawings and pre-application advice through to submission and approval, before construction begins - one less thing for you to coordinate yourself.
It happens more often than you'd think, and it's not a problem. Because design and construction sit under one roof, changes can usually be assessed and priced quickly, without the delays that come from looping in a separate architect and contractor.
We work closely with clients on layout, finishes, joinery and fixtures as part of the design process, and can bring in trusted interior design partners for a fully styled finish where that's wanted.
Both. Most of our work is private client design and build, but we also develop a small number of our own residential sites - from Victorian conversions to new build schemes. You can see these on our Developments page.
Yes - we're always interested in hearing from landowners and agents about sites with development potential, with or without existing planning permission. See our Developments page for more on how we work with landowners, or get in touch directly for a confidential conversation.
Yes. We look at sites with or without planning. Tell us about the site and we will talk through the options.
