Design Solutions Architecture Ltd - Stockport

Our friends recommended Simon to us after the great experience they’d had with him for their house extension, and I would 100% recommend him too. He is professional, extremely experienced and knowledgeable, offers advice and suggestions but also listened and understood what we were looking for with our extension. The whole process from the initial phone call with Simon to getting our planning permission approved by the council was very smooth and Simon kept us informed on each step, which was fantastic.

We had been considering an extension on the house but had no idea where to start, how to start, what to do or when to do it! We came across Design Solutions Architecture Ltd via a simple google search for Architects in the area.

We arranged for an appointment to go over the service they could provide and run through any questions, Simon arrived on time and gave us a great first impression. He ran through every step in detail during the initial consultation and you could clearly see Simon had a passion and love for his trade.

The entire process from the initial consultation through each stage of planning was exemplary, Simon was always available during the process and we would highly recommend him to anyone.

If we have any other projects that involve an architect then Simon at Design Solutions Architecture will be my only phone call.

I was referred to Simon Oates after an online enquiry and I’m so pleased with his personal, friendly and professional assistance in drawing up plans for my proposed ground floor extension. He invited me on site to other projects so that I could see and understand the technicalities of my project, and introduced me to the builder and kitchen designer making this a one-stop project without having to search high and low for other suppliers. Regular contact is good service and makes you feel reassured! I can highly recommend the services of Simon & Design Solutions Architecture Ltd.

Simon at Design Solutions Architecture Ltd has made the process of obtaining a set of useable building regulation drawings to our needs very straight forward and explained every step of the way. We have been delighted with his work and could not recommend him high enough! He split the process down into 3 key stages and gave a great explanation as to what each of these would entail, the cost of each stage and also the timeframe. We found Simon to be very thorough and pays attention to the small details. I would definitely recommend Simon and Design Solutions Architecture Ltd to anybody.

I was recommended to Design Solutions Architecture Ltd. and within minutes of meeting Simon, my partner and I knew we were in good hands. Simon advised my partner and I of work he had done in the local area so we had real time references for his work, and of course I went and had a nosey, who wouldn't?! His work was first class and viewing the final project up close and personal was really beneficial and reassuring for us.

When we received the working drawings on A1 we were blown away, they looked absolutely incredible and when we've shown trades the drawings either on PDF via an iPhone or hard copy, they've always received the wow factor - And that's all Simon's work, I'm taking no credit at all.

Simon talked us through each stage of the process clearly and methodically, telling us how he wanted us to work with him to make the process more streamlined and how best to reduce any delays. Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council's planning department were quite slow with their internal processes and that was disappointment, but there was nothing Simon could do, although he did write to them on our behalf to give them a polite nudge on a couple of occasions, which clearly did the trick and we got the desired outcome.

Simon is more like a mate when he calls now and it's important he should know that the kettle is always on should he want to pop by for a chat. We both found him great company and yet very professional, in a nutshell I would highly recommend his company and their services to anyone looking for professional architectural services - Design Solutions Architecture are a first class company.

From our very basic ideas for extending & altering the floorplan of our property Wesley swiftly produced a draft plan; suggestions & modifications were quickly agreed and incorporated, and the resultant set of detailed plans perfectly met our requirements.
Design Solutions applied for, closely followed up and obtained Planning Consent. Other tasks such as Structural Engineers reports, Building Regulations etc were all initiated for us.
Questions or issues were responded to & handled promptly, efficiently, and on site where necessary.
In summary we could not have wished for a more professional, comprehensive or personal service. It gave us confidence for moving forward and completing the project.
We would not hesitate to recommend Design Solutions.

We have used Simon from design solutions for two of our projects, he consistently brings passion and professionalism to his work.
Simon has always worked closely with us and turned our ideas in to fantastic reality.
Simon has also made dealing with the local authority very easy and has facilitated our project through the overly complicated system.
We have recommended design solutions to several friends and would have no hesitation on using this company again.
