Claire designed a house extension for us. She gave good advice on design, practical issues, bulding regulations and finding a builder.
Customer in Brighton, 11 August 2009
Claire is an imaginative architect and came up with some innovative ideas for my house refurbishment. She also has the ability to keep costs within reason, what more could you want?
Customer in Hove, 11 August 2009
Excellent service and advice in completing my room - in the roof project. Would recommend and have in fact recommended to others Claire Haigh's services.

Architectural Services
We already had a good idea of how we wanted our house to look when we appointed Claire. We chose her, over the other architech we saw because she listened and understood quickly. Everything went very smoothy.

Planning, building reg and project execution advice/build monitoring

Claire worked with us to create an outstanding design for a new house where planning and building regulations were complex. She calmly dealt with planning complexity and quickly resolved issues and submitted new drawing when required. Her knowledge and expertise were also very helpful during the construction phase of the project. We have no hesitation in recommending her.

Drawn up plans for house extension

Claire's ideas were brilliant! When drawing up the plans she used the available space in a very creative way. She was thinking things through from a very practical perspective - which is very much to our benefit when using the new kitchen now. We found her pricing very affordable. Claire also has the gift of being a good listener and communicator.

Architectural services to obtain Planning Permission and Building Regulations Approval for the extension of a guest room with en-suite shower and a new roof terrace

The service included a measured survey, drawings for discussion purposes and drawings for Planning Permission and Building Regulations Approval. The company provided me with a quotation, fully detailing the work they would undertake and providing details of all the fees and when they would be payable. I live in a town centre conservation area and Claire's knowledge and experience, in this area, has been particularly valuable. She very quickly grasped what I wanted to achieve, improving on my ideas and making creative suggestions. She is very responsive and accessible and I would have no hesitation in recommending her and her company and, indeed, have already done so.

Planning documents and consultancy for complex residential extensions

Claire Haigh Associates helped us through the whole cycle of our massive renovation from planning through to final sign offs. We would not have been able to get anything like such a good outcome without them. They were helpful, flexible, calm and professional. If you are planning a building renovation or extension project, then have a chat with them first. I am happy to recommend them.

Creating architect drawings and plans for our new kitchen extension

We were really pleased with the service we received. Claire obviously knows her stuff and she took all our ideas, inspirations, wants and needs into account during the process. She and her colleagues turned up bang on time - every time - and delivered all the drawings and paperwork on time too. Having an extension built is a fairly stressful and very expensive business, and Claire haigh Associates made sure their side of the project - architect services - wonderfully painless! Thanks again for all your help and support.
