What ever your project, be it New Build, Extension or Conversion, the right kind of specialist advice can generate imaginative design solutions that could pay dividends in the long run as to how you use the property or indeed its future saleability. The Billington Consultancy provides a refreshing and friendly alternative to traditional architectural practices.

Ask 100 people who would design their project and most if not all would probably suggest 'an architect' not knowing there are alternative consultants such as The Billington Consultancy having many years of extensive and successful experience.

Our services are tailored to your individual requirements, whether you only require Planning/Building Regulation drawings and submissions for your extension project; or perhaps fully detailed working drawings, specification and project management for a larger and more involved project. You simply choose exactly what you want and we provide a no quibble service with friendly, helpful advice.

We don’t talk down to you, baffle you with science or bully you into a design you don’t want. We call a spade a spade and talk to you in plain English, giving you impartial advice and information enabling you to make informed decisions. Indeed, if we think you are wrong, as your professional advisors we are duty bound to inform you, but will do exactly what you tell us to do (although we will of course put our concerns in writing to you). If it does go pear shaped we can say we told you so, but equally we are big enough to hold our hands up and say well done if it worked your way!

Many of our competitors work their fees out as a percentage of your project cost which we believe is no incentive to keep your project costs down. Here at The Billington Consultancy we agree our fees with you before you instruct us to proceed with your project, and which are usually broken down into specific fixed fee stages enabling you to budget for our services from the outset of your project.

As we are sure you will appreciate, we can only put a small selection of examples from different types of work on our web site to illustrate our experience. However we hope you will be impressed and comforted that we are small enough to provide that personal service for your home extension but large enough for the largest development.
