Excellent service, friendly and knowledgeable

Gareth was really responsive to our initial enquiry, came out to the house to introduce himself and talked extensively about his experience in the building and planning trades. When we agreed he would complete our plans, he was back out to the house numerous times to ensure accuracy of drawings and talk through the plans and designs with us. He was also contactable via telephone and email.
Gareth's knowledge of the building trade helped to ensure we made decisions which would be aesthetically pleasing and practical from a builder's perspective. He guided us through the planning requirements and submitted to the council for us. I would highly recommend the service he provided.

We contacted Gareth to get plans in place to have a 2 story extension drawn up. We have had no prior experience with any of the process and he has been brilliant in explaining what we needed to know and help us along the process. He has created our plans and we now have full planning permission and building regulations through his help. He has also put us in contact with a builder he has worked with in the past.

Would highly recommend people contact Gareth for their projects.

Gareth took care of the whole process from drawings to applications on our house extension without any fuss. He will be working on our next project very soon. Highly recommend his services. 👍

Highly recommend bethell&co
Gareth's service second to none and gone above and beyond to meet my requirements
He has recently done some drawings for my commercial premises so I can divide half into residential and submitted for planning permission to the local council.
It was a grey area for him to do commercial property he said but he has done a fantastic job at with the planning statements and went out his way to provide all the reports the council had asked for. Thank you Gareth.

I highly recommend Gareth. From the very first contact, he has acted in my best interests. He has listened (which is very important and has been lacking in my dealings with some other architects.) He has advised me wisely, drawn my plans and checked them carefully with me and then liaised with the planning dept to decide the best way forward. I have had a very complicated planning issue. Gareth has gone above and beyond to work on my behalf with the various departments to come to a satisfactory conclusion for me.

awesome work from Bethell and Co!!! really impressive and practical drawings for our house. Would recommend them to everyone. He took us from 0 to 100 in designing our extension and changes we wanted to make in the house we bought. We now have plans we are really happy with down to details.

We highly recommend the services of Gareth Young (Bethell & Co)! Gareth is caring, with a great personality, and with utmost professionalism and attention to detail. He produces comprehensive architectural plans with minuteness, precision, and clarity. His excellent advice reflects how experienced he is. Gareth produced plans punctually and kept us up to date at every step. He goes above and beyond to keep his clients happy. What really impressed us, apart from his work, was how helpful and accommodating he was, even after the work was completed. We would definitely use Bethell & Co again. Thank you, Gareth, so much!!

Didn’t have to think twice about using Gareth young (bethell&Co) to do the planning on our extension as I know the experience he has in the construction industry.
Everything has been dealt with professionally and with ease and is always at the other end of the phone if you have any queries.
Always getting updates every step of the way so you are always in the loop.
Excellent drawings and easy to read.
