Neil Cooke Architects - Doncaster

Tom Chisholm

We’d highly recommend Neil. He did a fantastic job with our brief to restore and extend a 1930s house.

He helped to ensure we retained all the character of the existing building which was crucial to us, whilst enhancing it beautifully with some brilliant modern design features. It all blended in seamlessly, utilising a perfect mix of traditional and modern materials. Once we’d seen his ideas they excited us, it was even better than we’d imagined, and really respected the original house.

Throughout the design, Neil listened to what we wanted, kept us informed of progress, and turned his work around really quickly which was hugely appreciated. He’s a pleasure to work with.

Our planning permission was also granted in just 4.5 weeks which was incredible and again testament to Neil’s hard work, knowledge and professionalism.

Simply we’re delighted with our plans, and we’re sure we made the right choice in selecting Neil as our Architect.

Thank you!

Neil was very professional and friendly through the engagement. He was very respectful with our wishes and objectives and was extremely helpful with advice and recommendations. Neil is meticulous with detail and performed all activities to expected timescales and was very supportive too through the entire planning process especially with heritage aspects of our Edwardian coach house. I strongly recommend Neil as the architect of choice having worked with several previously. Working with Neil took away much of the stress and anxiety during a complex project.

Whilst researching local architects, Neil Cooke's name came up....we're glad it did. Neil's enthusiasm, professionalism and eye for detail shows through in his designs. Neil worked with us to achieve the extended living space we needed, taking us through the design which was flexed and re modelled explaining what would work well in order to fit our end goal. Neil has been supportive whilst the build went ahead, providing guidance throughout. The quality of Neil's work can be seen in the finished design- providing key trade people with the detail they need to make the build flow as easy as possible.
No words can explain how highly we would recommend Neil Cooke - calm and professional from start to finish. You only need to see this in his work where your ideas come to life in the structures that are created. Beautiful, well planned and designed architecture, reflecting the environment in which it is brought to life.

I would highly and strongly recommend Neil Cooke to anyone in search of a confident, professional, thorough and efficient architect. My property is of a Grade 2* status and was in need of substantial renovations and a creative flare, this involved incorporating modern and historical features and designs whilst accommodating officials needs such as local planning authorities and Historic England. We described to Neil exactly what we would like to achieve and Neil communicated profusely to ensure the drawings were exactly to suit our needs. Neil liaised continually with planning officials and took the time to justify our requirements and built a rapport with both us as his clients and all other parties involved, whether this be surveyors, engineers and tradesmen etc. On a personal level Neil is extremely helpful, friendly and approachable which has made the renovation process somewhat enjoyable. Everything I have asked, queried and or requested has been actioned, justified or even implemented promptly. My forever home and requirements seemed near on out of reach but Neil confidently helped us achieve planning permission and Listed Building Consents. One thing I did particularly like about Neil’s delivery of service was that he was able to recommend but never once was biased about particular tradesmen, I could put my recommendations forward and Neil would always work with them but if I ever became unstuck Neil was able to suggest numerous alternatives to ensure the project ran smoothly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Neil Cooke to anyone in search of a fantastic architect.

We worked with Neil to re design our home over a period of time. Neil's expertise was invaluable in delivering the end design and also liaising closely with the Planning process to ensure our design was accepted.
Neil then went the extra mile in recommending a Brilliant Team of Trades to ensure we got the high end finish we were working towards.
Would not hesitate to recommend Neil for his expertise and professional service. Thank you Neil from Andy & Alison Binns.

As this was the first time we had embarked on extending a property, we relied on recommendations and advice to support us through the process and achieve the desired result. Neil spent time talking us through the process we would undertake from concept to completion, he spent time understanding our requirements and had a good look round our house to get a better feel for a style that would suit and then created the architectural drawings to bring the design to life. Neil was pivotal in progressing the design through the planning process and helped us find a builder/trades through his network of trusted contacts. We couldn't be more thrilled with the final result!

Neil worked with us very closely through a difficult and drawn out yet ultimately successful planning process, designing a lovely house which we would have enjoyed living in. Unfortunately circumstances (we moved abroad) didn't allow us to build in the end, but had we been able to do so, we would have happily used Neil as much as possible throughout the build, and further employed him on any future projects we may have started. Highly recommended and thoroughly professional.

Neil has been excellent during all stages of our build project which involved the full renovation of our 1930's house with the addition of a contempory extension. During the process Neil had alot of great ideas relating to materials, aesthetics and design. He worked extremely hard and researched specific areas to create plans with alot of detail for our trades to work from. Neil has many outstanding contacts to allow him and the building team to implement the plans to a very high standard. Without Neil and our builders who work closely on many projects we wouldn't have got such a good quality and unique home.
