Sarsen Designs salisbury

A fantastic design delivered in time with execlent communication throughout a long process.

We were fortunate enough to meet Charles and Henrietta when our new home was just a footprint on the ground which meant that they could work with us on the design aspect from the start and suggest alterations to the original plans which would make it a far more practical layout for our needs. It was great to work with them on the project as we felt fully involved. They understood what was important for us, had innovative ideas and we now feel we have the perfect home for us as a family.

Henrietta helped us to design our Dream home, a barn conversion in a village just outside of Salisbury. I say helped because that is essential to why we loved working with her so much. She did not try to push her own ideas or grand design as I was worried an architect might. Instead she listened to what we wanted, understood our hopes for our home and investigated how we live our lives to build a home which would work for us. She was able to create a scheme which met our aspirations while satisfying both the building regulations and pre-empting responses from the planners. Henrietta supported us right the way through the planning stage and was fundamental to ensuring that the planning department accepted our bold proposal. Henrietta is also a great communicator, always keeping us aware of progress and explaining the process to us every stage. Everyone knows that building your own dream home can be a tough journey but with someone like Henrietta on your side it is definitely a much more enjoyable one. Paul Griffin

Henrietta has been fantastic from start to finish with our project. She was always quick to respond to emails and phone calls and provided a reassuring and supportive service, always taking the time to discuss options and explain the process with us. She sought additional opinions from structural engineers to building control. Cannot fault their service and would use again without hesitation!

I highly recommend Sarsen Designs following their recent help with initial plans and building regulation drawings for our kitchen extension as well as the permitted development application. Henrietta clearly explained from the outset the process and costings at each stage of the project and we found Henrietta to be extremely professional and thorough and enjoyed working with her. Henrietta made it a stress free experience for us and kept it all on track.

Henrietta was extremely helpful throughout the process of designing our kitchen extension. The drawings were great and really made use of the space we had available to link it with the exterior of the original house. Also, very helpful when dealing with the planning application process, hardly had to worry and was kept up to date with developments. Would highly recommend and will use again in the future.

We needed help to redesign the layout of our downstairs space and approached Henrietta. She was very skilled at listening to what was important to us and in questioning us about things we may not have considered. This resulted in her providing five different schemes for us to consider as a starting point. She is knowledgeable about planning matters and building control. Her drawings are first class. She worked to promised timescales, was prompt and responsive. Most importantly though, she is cheerful, friendly and has lots of ideas. It was a pleasure to work with her. Thank you Henrietta 😊

Despite the fact that my father and brother were architects the thought of hiring one was kind of scary, maybe a bit too grown up somehow! However, Henrietta came, measured, advised, discussed and then sent drawings that I have had framed because they look so good! The project has been completed, she managed to get the planning through incredibly quickly as well. We love the new building and all her hard work was really good value. I would highly recommend.
