We would highly recommend Stephen as he has extensive knowledge and experience of designing and developing solutions to maximise your living space. We had an idea of what we wanted but Stephen brought some new ideas & suggestions to the table that we would not have considered. These have really helped to bring our extension to life and help us make the most of the space we have. Stephen’s knowledge of the planning process was really helpful too, particularly when we came to appeal a decision and he really helped with this process and ensured our appeal was granted.

Stephen was absolutely wonderful when it came to designing our extension - he took the time to understand how we live, what our priorities are in terms of using the rooms in our home, and then worked with us to build our ideas out into a full design.

Stephen's advice and support extended to helping us through the planning and building regulations process, which was invaluable given this was our first foray into major building works. All prices and documents were clear, concise and reasonable, with any questions answered promptly.

On top of all of that professionalism, Stephen is also just a lovely chap to deal with. My wife and I felt immediately comfortable in his company, and felt like he genuinely cared about the success of our project. 10/10, would strongly recommend!

After moving into a new area, I was speaking to local people about the services available to help with some extension work. I drew some rough ideas up, but I wasn’t confident enough that I could envision the final look. I was told by a work colleague that I should give Cross Street Architects a try. Having explained what is was I wanted over the phone we set up a home visit. From the start I had a good feeling I was with someone I could trust. We spoke at length about different ideas as my original plan wasn’t utilising all the space available. So with a complete design change from a side extension to a full back of the home extension. All the time, keeping me well informed of the reasons behind x,y and z. Understanding that things may well look good on paper, but not necessarily going to be practical. So once we agreed on the final draft design, Cross Street completed my design phase with ease. EVERYTHING was covered. From brick style, windows to tile, what was the best value for money, time periods, council planning.Nothing was missed. The plans I received were detailed but not overbearing. I even showed them to some friends who don’t have any technical background, and they knew exactly what the plans meant and the detail that was covered. I can not thank this company enough for their trust, professional customer focus, clear communication from start to finish. But the most important thing especially in the current crisis is “value for money” Well done and thank you for so much everything. I am delighted with how my home now looks.
