“The garage conversion that Stephen undertook for us has been a complete success and enabled us to make use of what was a dead storage space. Stephen quickly understood our needs and provided designs ideas for us to evaluate. Whenever we needed input on the design and build he was quick to respond and this meant we could rely on him to keep the project on time and budget.
We are delighted with the result and everyone comments on what a great space it is. We generally used it as a home office and studio but it has also been used for parties. Stephen helped us to solve a number of problems and we still have a good storage area because an extension was created without spoiling the aesthetic of what is an attractive tile hung building.
The designs had been well thought through and we didn’t encounter any major problems in the planning process. The garage conversion has added significantly to the quality and value of our home. We would be happy to recommend Stephen Waldron Architects.”
Within an hour of Stephen’s initial visit, he was able to show us a rough sketch of the completed conversion. Where we only saw a detached garage full of junk, Stephen saw a sun-room, shower room, utility room and bike shed, connected to the main house! This is a reflection of Stephen’s creativity and imagination. Stephen’s attention to detail and breadth of experience were invaluable in not only employing a reliable builder but in producing a finished product of the highest quality. Our requests for, as far as possible, “environmentally friendly” products to be used were readily taken up by Stephen, and suitable suppliers found. Throughout the building process, Stephen monitored progress by regular phone-calls, e-mails and site visits. The “aftercare” that Stephen provided was also second-to-none: the final payment only being made 3 months after the completion date.
I am pleased to report back that the works have proceeded seamlessly, in an efficient and pleasant manner. Mr Stephen Waldron has advised me that if I have any observations, notes etc on damages, whatever, to report them to yourself now. Happily there are none, save to compliment Mr Waldron on his choice of builder, whom has gone out of his way to minimise disruption and detritus that is inevitably associated with such a project.
We called Stephen because our house wasn’t working, we had a tiny kitchen that was always a mess. Stephen worked with us from the ground up finding an expression for what we wanted and making it happen. What we have now is a completely different house that transformed our family and the way we live.
What impressed us about Stephen, from the outset, was his willingness to work within the budget with which we felt comfortable.
Rather than approach him with an idea of what we wanted, we instead presented him with the problems we were trying to solve and our perceived needs and nice-to-haves.
What we got from this was a series of ideas, many of which we had not thought of, that stimulated us to think about our home in ways we had not done before.
