From planning applications to completion, our team is committed to providing the highest standards of service.

Thank you Good Design & Build…
“Originally, we’d planned on this being a property to rent out to others. Since the loft conversion, we’ve fallen back in love with the place – and have now decided to move back here.”

My wife and I would like to say a huge thank you
“My wife and I would like to say a huge thank you to all the team at Good Design & Build. From the planning stage all the way through to completion they were meticulous with their design and helping us achieve our vision of our dream family home. We were supported all the way through, even when we wanted to make significant structural changes during the build. We are over the moon with the results achieved and quality of the building work and finishing is excellent. THANK YOU GOOD DESIGN & BUILD!!”

Good Design provided the architectural services
“Good Design provided the architectural services as well as building work. It was great to have both bundled into one. They were very flexible and great to work with - nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend them.”

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Amol
“We thoroughly enjoyed working with Amol and the Good Design & Build team on our recent house extension. We've been so happy with how the team helped design, plan and deliver the extension. Always very patient and informative of how the process will run, the team did a fantastic job and we're delighted with the results. The biggest compliment I can give them is that I'd happily work with Amol and the team again :).”
