5* service - thank you!

We have used CBLS for our extension. We have been so impressed by the excellent service from initial design ideas through to construction. The designs were top quality and they suggested features that my husband and I would never have thought of ourselves. But what has impressed us the most is the punctual communication throughout the whole project. We have been guided step by step through the planning process and they have liaised with the various third parties on our behalf (planning officers, building control, structural engineer, builders etc) throughout the project, ensuring those people deliver their input on time and making the process as stress free as possible for us. In particular Adam has been on hand to answer all of our (many!) questions along the way with his expert and clear advice. All in all we couldn’t recommend CBLS highly enough.

Adam at CBLS has been fantastic to work with. He has gone above and beyond to make sure our plans are exactly what we wanted. He communicated directly with our local planners to make sure our plans were passed in good time. We are very happy with our end project. Would highly recommend.

You have left a review for the wrong company we offer Architectural Design and Consultancy services not Electrical installation services. Can you kindly remove this review and associate it to the correct company. We are sorry to hear you have had issues though.

Professional, dedicated and detailed

Luke has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Whilst the project has been stalled by planning issues so we haven't been able to experience his structural plans or on site reporting his architecture design and planning assistance so far has been great. He goes above and beyond assisting with measurements and documents for party wall, builders, windows etc and always makes himself available. Our planning has been an absolute nightmare but he has stayed calm and has dedicated a huge amount of time to try and get our dream project approved which we are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel on. I feel like he is a real asset and partner on the project and look forward to experiencing his skills in structural planning and site reports etc. Highly recommended.

Hard Worker, Great Team, Experiences

Luke has worked hard to ensure my project gets passed by the council. I am a newbie to all these processes, and Luke's experience has been invaluable.

Despite my newness Luke also listens to my ideas and feedback with an open mind, I don't ever feel dismissed or overruled. Its a great partnership.

Could not have chosen a better architect!

Luke at CBLS worked tirelessly from start to finish on our extension project, which being a listed building was not straight forward. All of the tradesmen involved with building the extension commented on how detailed Luke's drawings were which was really reassuring and comforting. He dealt with the planning department at our local council and followed through with everything meticulously. He has always been on the other end of the phone to help and nothing was ever too much trouble. As a result we have naturally recommended CBLS to others and they have been employed to design the extension on the house next door to us, another listed building. Cannot recommend CBLS enough really!

Great work and help by CBLS

CBLS and Luke have done a great job on design and getting plans passed, they've been very helpful, I would be happy to recommend them. I've used them on two occasions and both times things have gone smoothly.

Excellent, reliable and knowledgeable architects

Luke at CBLS has been amazing from our very first meeting with him. Luke is friendly and has been very patient with us and our many questions. He interpreted our various ideas and created detailed plans which fitted our criteria.
He is extremely knowledgable and has good insight into how the local planning departments differ and what each one is looking for to ensure that our plans successfully received permission without any need for changes.
He always replies promptly to emails and has completed plans quickly and thoroughly and explained everything so we know what’s happening at every stage.
We cannot recommend CBLS highly enough.

Luke has been very helpful and highly knowledgeable advising on our loft conversion. His communication skills and ability to offer clear professional advice has been first class throughout, promptly replying to all emails. We have found him to be extremely personable and always happy to answer questions and offer suggestions. I cannot recommend Luke more highly, a first class company in every respect.

Art Studio Project

This is the first time we have worked with architects and it has been a very good experience. The process was clearly described and CBLS have kept us up to date and worked with the planning authorities on our behalf.
It has been good to discuss our ideas and agree the final design. I would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.
