We recently used Design Time Architecture for drawings and planning advice relating to our home extension and were extremely impressed with the service provided. From the initial consultation through to the completed drawings, everything was handled professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail.

Communication was excellent throughout, with clear explanations given at every stage and any questions answered promptly. The drawings were produced to a high standard and any amendments we requested were incorporated quickly and without issue.

What stood out most was the knowledge of residential projects, planning requirements, and local considerations within Ilford, Redbridge, and the surrounding areas. The advice provided helped us understand our options and move forward with confidence.

We have also received assistance on another family property and have always found the service reliable, honest, and highly professional. We would not hesitate to recommend Design Time Architecture to anyone looking for planning drawings, extensions, loft conversions, or architectural design services.

Thank you again for the excellent service.

We’re so grateful for the amazing service we received for our loft conversion planning. He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and turned our ideas into a clear, well‑designed plan. He supported us through the council application and made the whole process stress‑free by explaining everything step by step. What stood out most was how easy he was to reach — always available, always helpful. We couldn’t have asked for better support.

We recently used Design Time Architecture for our property in Seven Kings, Ilford, and honestly the whole experience was excellent. From the initial visit through to the drawings and planning guidance, everything was handled professionally and efficiently.

Anas was very approachable, knowledgeable, and easy to deal with throughout the project. Communication was always quick, clear, and reliable, and any amendments or questions were dealt with promptly. The drawings were produced to a very good standard and the advice given throughout the process made everything much less stressful.

What stood out most was the attention to detail and genuine care taken with the project. It never felt rushed or generic. It was reassuring working with someone local who understands the area and the typical planning considerations around Ilford and Seven Kings properties.

Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for architectural drawings, extensions, loft conversions, or planning application services in the local area.
