Our Testimonials

I cannot recommend PMR architecture highly enough. From the start of the process, they were so helpful, understanding and extremely knowledgeable on the entire planning and building process. Their work and explanations were crystal clear, their communication excellent at every step and Ashley was amazing in helping us achieve the necessary planning permissions for our double storey extension. Their service is first rate in every regard and I would recommend them to anyone looking to do an extension or have work done to their property.

Marc Brand

Excellent service!!! We worked with PMR Architecture for planning permission for a two double dormer bungalow. Paul Rose provided the majority of the service. His attention to detail and expertise was excellent. He displayed the highest standards of professional conduct and continuously kept us up to date with the process.

The guys were always on hand to advise throughout the whole process, and any hurdles that did arise were quickly dealt with making the process seem effortless on our side of things. Great work and thank you to the team at PMR!!!

Josh Lowles

We used PMR Architecture on our home extension. Paul's initial design, creativity, vision and ideas truly inspired us to pursue with our extension. With a myriad of contacts throughout the various trades Paul was able to recommend and link us where necessary making the whole process as simple and pain-free as possible. If you are looking for a professional service from an absolute gent then I can't recommend PMR Architecture highly enough.

Joe Smith

Paul provided us with excellent service when drawing up plans for our extension. He was always friendly and got back to us quickly if we had any questions. Paul supported us with the planning application and we would highly recommend PMR architecture to others.

We really enjoyed working with Paul on a redesign of our ground floor. He was professional, responsive, flexible and able to explain options clearly, as well as being a genuinely nice person to work with. I would absolutely recommend him.

Colette Stevens

We’ve had a great experience with PMR, Paul has made sure we’ve been kept informed along the way and we’ve secured the planning we needed. He’s also made sure the designs fit both our brief and budget.

Louise Jones

PMR helped us draw up plans and gain planning for an additional building at our property which is located in a Conservation Area. Their friendly approach, knowledge of the subject matter and dedication to deliver what we wanted from the space was first class and we couldn't be happier with the results. Thanks to all the team that worked on this for us.

Chris Harrill

Big thanks to Paul and his team for organising the planning permission for my glazing showroom. All went super smoothly as expected!
I often work with architects & I must say that PMR is one of the best teams we work with due to incredible communication & cooperation Skills.
They also have a burning desire to deliver only the best to their customers, so I would never hesitate to recommend them.

Aaron Hern

We’ve worked on many stand out projects with PMR and they’re one of the best architects for their technical drawings, knowledge and execution for some of the most challenging projects in the area. Their detail drawings are some of the best we’ve seen. There’s also always someone to answer the phone and we always enjoy working on the projects they’re involved with.

Alex Ardern

I am very pleased to have chosen PMR Architecture to organise outline planning permission for a new dwelling on our land next to our property. Sam was brilliant throughout the process and ensured we were kept up to date during each step and worked diligently in order to achieve our desired result within a short space of time. Couldn't recommend them enough and will be using them again in the future should the need arise.

Shaun Dummett

We engaged PMR Architecture to design a new extension for our bungalow, and initially met with Paul Rose Director who we were very impressed by. Shaun Davey was our architect who worked alongside us throughout the project, he produced an option of designs and put forward the chosen design to the Council Planning Committee on our behalf. Once approved PMR assisted with the evaluations of building contractors, including cost, quality and timeframe.
Shaun oversaw the construction from design to completion perfectly, consequently we now have a beautifully designed extension which dramatically has improved the overall look of the house. We are very grateful to Shaun for all his input and expertise.
We were impressed by PMR’s professionalism throughout the project and would highly recommend them to future clients.

Jennifer Jones

Amazing service from start to finish.
This is the second time we've used PMR, Granted the first time was 4 walls and a roof so that couldn't have been their biggest job butt his second time we've bought a 90 year old unique house and with Paul's knowledge, ideas and attention to every part of our project they have succeeded to pull off a design better than we had imagined.
Kept us up to date and was constantly chasing planning to get the purposed plans through.
Would and will be recommending PMR Architecture to anyone with a project build
Thank you to all of the team at PMR

Paul Waterhouse

It was an absolute pleasure working with PMR Architecture. Their team was fantastic to collaborate with — professional, creative, and incredibly detail-focused throughout the entire process. Their designs were inspiring, and it was an honour to help bring their vision to life on site. Looking forward to working together again on future projects!

Tim Smith

Just finished using PMR to draw up plans for my dream home and then submit it for approval they where helpful, professional and went above and beyond every step of the way i could not recommend them enough the whole process was done efficiently and so smoothly taking all the stress out of it.

Matthew B

I instructed PMR Architecture last year to develop our plans. Our area is subject to strict planning rules, however, Ashley was able to navigate these and help us obtain the plans we wanted. They were very proactive in advising which surveys were needed to avoid any potential delays and made sure they had a very clear understanding of our brief. We faced some resistance from the council after submission but our architect successfully challenged most of their concerns. I'd have no hesitation in recommending this company.

Randhir Sidhu

Ashley and the team have been great! It’s been a pleasure to work with them to finalise our extension plan - they took on board all our needs and requirements. They have submitted our application to the local authority and they deal with them on our behalf. We would highly recommend them for your building needs.

Linda Philpot

PMR Architecture have been fantastic from the outset. They gave us loads of valuable advice before the project even began, which really helped us get clarity. Honest, knowledgeable, and easy to work with – highly recommended.
