Here’s what one of Catherine’s clients had to say about her work
“The service is fantastic and the help Catherine provided was brilliant. I have been looking for a simple and easy to use architect service that deals with home improvements for ages. Unlike the many other architects I contacted, Catherine actually responded with a clear service description and clear pricing. The free initial consultation was super insightful. The design consultation gave us everything we needed and ended years of procrastination about the best options to solve the functional issues we have with our house. Catherine helped us narrow down what was really important, drew up a number of different options from simple solutions to grander designs and then talked us through them in detail. The benefit of engaging an architect has been immense. I have no hesitation recommending Catherine.”

Here's what Catherine has to say about House Architects
“House Architects is born form the wish to offer ordinary homeowners, with no prior architectural experience, accessible and quality architectural help for their house extensions or refurbishments. We help people with all manner of changes to their home, helping them obtain the necessary statutory consents, producing design options and helping with project management too. We know how stressful doing work to your home can be, and our aim is to treat our clients with the same care as we would a member of our family, making the whole process as smooth and stress free for them as possible.”
