Couldn't have done more for us in our extension planning and application. David was clear in his communication every step of the way, listening to our needs and guiding us through the possibilities and their implications. Felt well looked after and the entire process was smooth and trouble free. Would definitely recommend and use again

I was recommended Dave Silk by a local builder to survey and design an extension to our house. Dave's been extremely helpful and has provided an excellent service. We knew roughly what sort of extension design we were trying to achieve but Dave was able to offer invaluable design advice to improve on this. Their costs have also been very competetive. Thanks Dave.

Excellent service from start to finish. Silk Sharples Jennings offer a very friendly and professional service. I was most impressed with the quality of the advice i received from David who designed and submitted our plans for our new extension. The whole process was made very easy and now having received our permission we cannot wait to construct our new extension. I would not hesitate to recommend them. Great service. Regards Andy & Emma
