Detailed reviews
Javens design did a perfect job interperating my specification for our extension plans up to a highly detailed set of drawings and advice that were regulation compliant and ready for the council planning team compliance evaluation. It's made communication with our builder very easy and able to get a detailed bill of materials for the quote. Many thanks for a great service and money well spent on this great set of drawings. I would highly recommend 👌
Simon met with us and took the time to fully understand our vision for our large renovation and extension. He gave valuable advise on our options and walked us through the planning process to a successful application. We found Simon very easy to deal with and would strongly recommend him.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
