What areas do you cover?
We serve Hampshire and surrounding areas including Southampton, Winchester, the New Forest, Romsey, Eastleigh, and often work into Dorset and West Sussex.
Do I need an architect for my project?
For most extensions, loft conversions, and renovations, a qualified architectural technologist like our team provides everything you need, often at a lower cost than a chartered architect. We handle all design, planning, and building regulations.
How much does a consultation cost?
Your initial consultation is completely free. We'll discuss your ideas, assess your property, and provide guidance on feasibility, budget, and timescales before any commitment.
How long does the process take?
Timelines vary by project. A typical extension design takes 4 to 6 weeks, with planning permission usually taking 8 weeks. We'll give you a clear timeline at your consultation.
Do you handle planning permission?
Yes, we manage the entire planning application process on your behalf, including all drawings, documentation, and liaison with the local authority.
Can you manage the build as well?
Absolutely. We offer full design-and-build packages with project management. We source and coordinate trusted builders and tradespeople, keeping you informed every step of the way.
