We contacted a number of architects for our project , but chose Mike Taylor of Taylor & Co Architects . He quickly grasped what we wanted and adapted the plans as we crystallised our thoughts. He held our hand through planning and introduced us to a great local builder. The project will be amazing once completed.

Mike has been great. Listening to what we want to get out of our build and providing ideas and possible ways forward. I really like the way Mike is knowledgeable about the potential cost and ways to make the most of our budget.

I am Director of 2 Counties Construction (Midlands) Limited and have assisted many clients with their renovation/new build projects where Taylor & Co Architects provided their architectural and design services. Mike is very professional and really knows his stuff! 2 Counties Construction (Midlands) Limited would highly recommend using his services.
