The Market Design & Build
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 October 2016
“The Market Design and Build has just finished a big project for us and we couldn’t be happier. The property is an old converted barn so the challenge was huge. Obviously there were some set backs but the communication in between us (property owners) and The Market was excellent so problems were solved quickly. These guys are not here to screw you over. Before signing the contract they guaranteed us that they wouldn’t leave the project until we were 100% happy.. And they didn’t! We are sure to use The Market again if we need more work done on a property in the future.”
Karenna Wilford Architects Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 November 2017
“We were very pleased when Karenna Wilford Architects were recommended to us for our cottage extension and refurbishment. Karenna has been like a breath of fresh air to us. She is reliable, professional and very pleasant to work with. She worked closely with us to give us not only just what we wanted but also made valuable suggestions which proved to be a large benefit to the final scheme. KWA project managed all the building works as we had very specific requirements and wanted to use specialised contractors. They were very efficient and KWA kept us well informed of the impact some of the design decisions would have on our budget! We love our new home and can thoroughly recommend Karenna and her team.”
DASH
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 August 2017
“I worked with JF Projects on a couple of projects and Jonathan is great at getting things done on time and within budget. He provides solutions which has brought us a lot of savings. He gets the liaising done between the Client and the Design Team so that we can just get on with the work. He also looks out for issues with the project before they arrise so that they do not slow the job down. I would recommend working with him and his team.”
MODEL Projects Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 January 2014
“Model Projects were a delight, from the initial brief with James who immediately took my requirements and turned them into a fantastic design - spot on first time with no amendments necessary. Kathryn then took over on a day to day basis as project manager and I cannot praise her highly enough. Dealing with the local authority, building control, structural engineers and the many contractors was done with calm and determination and I now have my dream space.”
Geoff Crowther Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 September 2022
“Geoff took on a property development (mixed commercial and residential) for us through design, quotes, appointment of contractors and project management. Throughout he was thoroughly professional, always on hand to answer questions and to deal with problems and fully in command of expenditure ensuring that we got value for money at every stage. He made excellent use of space proving us with modern, high value rentals that were easy to let. He has been very helpful all through the process and has continued to be so for the two years since its completion. We found him to be personable, friendly and very easy to get on with and would highly recommend him for both commercial and residential projects.”
Go Plans
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 December 2022
“Our experience with Go plans has been excellent. They arranged a home visit at very short notice, listened to our suggestions and compiled the initial drawings relatively quickly. They also successfully handled the whole planning permission process for us and provided a very fast and professional response to the requests and changes requested by the planning officer. We would definitely use them again for future work.”
MichaelJane Architecture Ltd

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 February 2022
“We are at the beginning if our journey with Michael. He is dedicated to the project and also passionate about his work. He has worked closely with us through the design process. His ideas have been excellent and have made him stand out from other architects. He will be working with us, project managing the work.”
Blackburn Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 June 2020
“I commissioned Ben to work on my ambitious extension project based on a very positive referral from a friend who had previously commissioned him. Ben immediately added value by identifying opportunities and enhancing the ambition and design of what I had in mind, whilst being responsible with the budget. Ben is a consummate professional, highly creative with a very thorough approach to the project that inspires confidence. Would highly recommend for any project size and complexity.”
Greenway Associates
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars7 August 2016
“I used Greenway Associates for both planning permission and building control. I found Wayne to be very professional, knowledgable and experienced. He took on all responsibility to liase with the planning office and all proposals and drawings were approved at the first time of asking.”
Conceptual Design Associates Ltd
Architects & Building Designers in Caterham.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 February 2024
“We have worked with Giovanni on our home for 10 years. He is very easy to work with, very accommodating of our ideas, and super responsive during the build phases when we needed advice. As an Engineer, I would say the best bit is his background in construction. This meant the digital plans were immaculate, highly detailed and contained everything I needed as a self builder. If the phrase is "stick to the plan" then if you stick to a Giovanni plan, your home will be millimetre perfect.”

It is often said when you're building a house, you’re building a dream. An architect or master of building design can make your dream house a reality. Architects can help you design and redesign spaces of your home or focus on helping you build your own house from the ground up. Architectural firms have extensive knowledge of architectural design and building materials, and a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light, and flow within a property. As you search through architects and building designers in Caterham, Surrey, UK, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Caterham, Surrey, UK architect for my home design or renovation project?


When building or renovating your home, you don't simply hire an architect or building designer — you build a relationship with them. Be sure you chose a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Architecture is an incredibly technical profession and one where getting things wrong can literally put lives at risk, so ensure you hire a professional with a valid license or an architectural firm to maintain high quality and standards. Your next consideration will be architectural style. Some residential architects specialise in designing traditional homes or farmhouses, others in designing modern replicas of traditional homes. While a few have a knack for imagining bolder, more futuristic architectural design in Caterham, Surrey, UK that incorporates the latest technology.

Once you have frozen on the architect or building designer, chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and any other specific requirements you might have. Ask them to walk you through the process, including the number of architectural design consultations, site visits and what they will be delivering and when, e.g. feasibility study, a technical drawing, tender package and/or planning application drawings. Also, get a sense of whether they are a good listener, collaborator, and problem solver. Finally, be sure to find out what the architect needs from you,deeds, rights of way, deposit, staged payments and so on.

How much does hiring an architect in Caterham, Surrey, UK cost?


Home construction and renovation often have a preset budget and hence it is important to understand how much architects charge. While there is no set payment structure, independent architects may charge differently from architectural firms. Architects sometimes choose to calculate their fees on the basis of a per square foot rate. In rare cases, especially with smaller projects, Caterham, Surrey, UK architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee. Make sure the total figure and payment schedule is agreed as part of your contract, particularly if you are trying to accurately estimate the cost of building a house.

  • Can you handle my special requests?

  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
