Testimonials
Kind words.
We have worked with many people over the years. A construction project is the collaboration between a variety of parties, all equally as important if the end product is to be perfect. Of course, it all starts with the Client and the will to create, improve, establish.
Below is a selection of comments from different parties: Clients, consultants, specialists and contractors. We believe it is critical to show the whole picture, as that is the ethos of our service and the keystone of a successful project. This also constitutes a testimony to the values carried over with the founders.
“He has led the team on the multimillion pounds extensive refurbishment project of our country estate home in Surrey. He has proven himself to be diligent and of integrity, knowledgeable and professional. He would listen, take time to understand the concerns before following up with action. Approachable and respectful, he endeavoured to maintain a good working relationship between all parties during the process, resulting in a successful outcome. His assistance and support is certainly a valuable asset any new project and home owner could benefit from.”

"Always available and on hand to answer any questions related to the project. He also acted as a sounding board for various issues raised by the house management staff, and provided reasonable and logical feedback and input throughout the project.
Contactable and his pleasant and professional demeanour made him a pleasure to work with.
I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him and his staff for leading a project”

“Working relationships can be many things but the ones that work best are borne from mutual respect and above all the ability to listen. In the many years that we have worked on projects together his calm, efficient professionalism has run hand in hand with his ability to listen carefully and interpret information critical to the path of each individual project.”

“He has the ability to understand and translate the information in a clear and concise manner, setting out packs which enable the implementation of the project to run smoothly mitigating delays; this has always been a very strong attribute of his. This leads to a much smoother costing and implementation of the project for the client. Always very professional and highly recommended.”
Sean Vaughan
Director
Silver Interiors
“Caught between what you would like to do and what builders are capable of providing, he is the answer. He understands the timeless principles of design, the endless regulations from government and councils, the needs to correspond with building control and most of all how to work with builders to ensure your thoughts come off paper and are put into practice.
My only criticism? It’s taken him so long to realise what a rare and valuable talent he has.”
