I am very happy that I appointed Gary Arnold Architects for my extension and outbuilding project. From the beginning he was clear and informative. His fee was very reasonable for the work he provided which included 3D design drawing options, technical deaign and on site project management. My wife and I are extremely happy with the completed work amd our house and lives have been transformed. We now have a space for our teenage son and his friends to hang out so that we can relax in our natural light filled lounge with a much improvemed connection to our garden which we were previously unable to enjoy as much as we now can. I can wholeheartedly say without any reservation that gary arnold architects has improved all of our family members lives. Again, Thankyou so much Gary.

Gary provided us with a great service throughout our process of getting planning position granted for our property. The drawings were clear and professional and we were very happy with the end result. Gary was always very easy to contact and happy to help and provide solutions to any queries we were having.

I had the pleasure of working with Gary on my Bexley development. He completed the building regulations drawings and construction plan for the project. Building control signed of the document without any questions or queries. This is a testament to Gary's eye for detail. When I did have questions during the build process, Gary was very responsive and was able to provide clarity when amendments needed to be made.

Thank you Chris. It has been a pleasure to work for you on this mutliple dwelling development on a brown field site. I can only but hope to work with similar clients to you in the future. This project was relatively complex compared to most residential projects in the suburbs but I used my experience gained over the years and from working in larger more commercial architectural practices to provide you with an cost competitive and high quality architectural service. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you ever need an architect again.

We have recently used Gary Arnold Architects and Gary has been second to none and delivered everything we wanted on time. I would highly recommend Gary if you are looking for an architect.

I wanted someone to help with an interior renovation and possible extension. Gary was very helpful from the beginning and on a site visit talked through all the options, offering suggestions and pragmatic solutions. Gary developed the final plans very quickly and I have appreciated his recommendations for other companies to use too which has taken some of the stress out of the project and have so far delivered on his recommendations. This has been a much better than previous experience with another architect and I would happily work with Gary again in the future.

Hello Tammy, Thankyou for your kind review. This could have been written by several different clients I have worked with recently. However, I do not recognise the name. I have had no clients called Tammy Graco. Please can you clarify who you are?

We engaged Gary Arnold Architects for the design of our new house, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Gary clearly explained the planning application process and attentively listened to our wants and concerns. His communication was both effective and professional throughout the project. He delivered an outstanding design that exceeded our expectations, with drawings that creatively illustrated our discussions and optimised the potential for achieve planning permision. We highly recommend Gary to anyone seeking honest and exceptional architectural services.

We appointed Gary to draw up some plans for an open plan kitchen area. We both thought Gary was very engaging, very professional and excellent. Approachable and down to earth! He totally got our initial brief, sent initially on email, for our refurbished kitchen/dining area immediately. After an initial site visit, he was attentive and accommodating of our changes along the way and supplied us with many options as we progressed and patiently explained the process to us. We are very happy to have found Gary and would recommend him to provide similar architectural services. He also helped in the search for a builder to talk too!

We recently engaged Gary's architectural services and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Gary is very professional, was engaged throughout the process and prompt with his communication. We went back and forth on designs and Gary was really attentive and accommodating of our changes, as well as recommending options to us that we reasonable and took into account our budget. He worked directly with the council so we didn't need to be involved and was able to get our planning application approved. If you are looking for an architect, look no further!

GA Architects did drawings for our extension and loft conversion, applied for permissions, wrote up the scope of works, helped in the search for builders and project managed the build. It was everything that we needed for a big project, especially when we had little experience in this area. Gary delivered quality work, was very responsive throughout the whole process, and was very helpful in answering our many questions. I’m glad to have found this local firm!

Gary was very quick and helpful in drawing plans up for our extension that will be a ground floor bedroom and bathroom for our disabled daughter. He was also incredibly helpful during the planning permission stage, helping the Council to understand the usage and need for space for a wheelchair turning circle so would definitely recommend him!
