Locker room

Posted on by bdbmsite

Met a client for a glass of bubbly to celebrate the completion of their new shower room extension. What a lovely way to complete a project!

The room was to provide a ground floor shower room that also served as a changing room for the outside pool .

We had an ongoing joke along the build on their concerns it would end up looking like a football locker room, so yesterday they presented me with this:

I am so lucky to work with such great clients.

5* review

Posted on by bdbmsite

Just received this review which made my day:

“We would 100% recommend Mark. We finally found someone who gave us the advice and reassurance we needed (after years of planning & architect pain!). He is very calm, knowledgeable and professional and helped changed our view on our house renovation.

He helped us replan our house so it flowed better downstairs, investigated more environmentally ways to heat our house and he expertly managed the tender process of finding the right builder with great attention to detail. We will definitely call upon his help again if needed.

In a great start to the weekend, I am delighted for my clients Lucas and Sarah who’s Planning permission was granted today for a complete internal reorganisation, rear extension plus changes to the fenestration of their 1960’s home. I’m looing forward to progressing the Technical Plans and seeing this build through to completion.

Forest School Approval

Posted on by bdbmsite

I am so delighted for the guys at Little Muddy Me Forest School, who finally secured planning for their new site at Bray Lake.

I love the concept of the Forest School and the ethos of Vicki and her team for pre-school age children to enjoy and learn about the natural environment. Gaining Planning Approval was not as straight forward as it should have been as the Planning Officers had no prior experience of this type of school to base their decision on. However, after a long wait the school can now confirm a place for all the children on their waiting list.

Draughty Home

Currently looking to find a workable floor plan for a couple who have been living on a building site for the past 4 years. They have been knocking down walls and changing direction, but have now engaged my services.

Interesting project! Time for them to have a warmer winter!
