We worked with Paul to completely remodel and extend our 60/70's house in West Wellow. Paul was happy to work with our vision for the house and suggested designs that guided us through the process. He is very professional, organised and easy to work with, he came up with creative ideas but always understood the budgets we were working within. Paul helped us to understand the process at all stages and was attentive to the build throughout. At every stage that we needed advice he was always helpful and constructive in his suggestions. He also recommended our builder to us (Steve at Safechoice Builders

We have now used Landford Architectural Services/Paul Biddle on a number of occasions and are extremely happy customers. As well as professional drawings, completed to a very high standard, we have always found the service thereafter to be very helpful and first class. Including if required, visits to the site to explain things/make changes as necessary. The service is always provided on a professional and personable basis. We would be more than happy to highly recommend Landford Architectural Services.

Very professional service. Landford Architectural Services drew up clear and thorough extension plans in record time, made some minor changes speedily and without a quibble. Acquired planning permission for the planned extension with great surprise, as what almost seemed like an impossible task, was turned into possible. Will definitely use Landford Architectural Services again. Highly recommended!

Paul came to us on a recommendation and I knew from the moment I spoke to him on the phone he would deliver. We have a bungalow on a plot we were wanting to demolish and build a new house. I gave Paul a fairly comprehensive list of requirements and he managed to not only accomodate them all but added some amazing features I would never have thought of. He has incredible vision and creativity ( and patience ) and has designed the perfect family home. I would have no hesitation whatsoever to recommend Landford Architectural Services.

Paul listened to our requirements carefully and came up with a couple of outline proposals for us to consider in the first instance. Having decided which one we would like to pursue he came up with detailed plans that the builder commented on as being very clear and thorough. Paul continued to monitor how things were going as the build proceeded and kept in contact with the builder at regular intervals. I knew he was always on hand to seek further advice or guidance at any point through the build, should it be needed. The finished product has exceeded our hopes and expectations and we are grateful
