How can I check the quality of an architectural technician’s work?

Review client testimonials, project portfolios and case studies of previous work. You can do this all in one place on MyBuilder. A technician should also be able to provide references or showcase projects that demonstrate their expertise in your area of interest.

What should I expect from a professional architectural technician?

A technician should be certified, experienced and compliant with building regulations. They should provide clear design proposals, technical drawings and an effective plan for your project, while making sure that all work complies with planning permissions and safety standards.

Do architectural technicians need insurance?

Yes, architectural technicians should have professional indemnity insurance to cover any mistakes or omissions in their work. They should also have public liability insurance to protect against accidents or property damage. Always request proof before hiring.

What questions should I ask before hiring an architectural technician?

Before hiring, ask about their experience with projects similar to yours, including any challenges they faced and how they overcame them. Check what software and tools they use for drawings and planning, and confirm their availability and estimated timeline for your project. It’s also wise to discuss how they handle changes during construction and their process for ensuring all work meets current building codes and regulations.

The design work which Cliff Almond provided exceeded our expectations leading us to use his services on a totally unrelated project such is wide experience and knowledge. The work has always been carried out on time and budget. Thanks again!

Shane completed the design for a clubhouse facility for a local football club. The complex consisted of 4 team changing rooms, kitchen and function area, referee changing, treatment room, storage area public and disabled toilet facilities. The design was completed to a high standard, and the club is extremely happy with the project. Shane took a personal interest in the project and this was reflected in the quality of the design.

Joinery & Cabinet Making- 29 Jun 2023
We employed Harisson and his team to design and build a feature wall in our bedroom and create a hidden door. The space itself was difficult as it was in the eaves of the house with an angled ceiling. From the outset Harisson was brilliant, working with us to understand our requirements and developing this into a graphical design. Viewing the wall on the graphics software really helped in understanding what it would look like and enabled us to make changes to get it perfect. Once again Harisson was brilliant in giving and taking ideas so that we arrived at the right design. Once we had chosen the paint colour Harisson was able to replicate it exactly and apply a spray paint to a perfect finish. The construction of the wall was exactly as per plan. Harisson has a great eye for detail and is very particular about ensuring that the finished look is of very high quality. His team were very polite and hard working, they also have Harisson’s eye for detail and produced an excellent quality of finish. Overall I’d say that Harisson and his team are brilliant and I’d absolutely recommend him to everyone.

We wanted to extend our kitchen into a kitchen diner with an extension to the rear of our house. Mark drew the plans and provided some excellent planning services. The plans were passed first time with no problems. Even the building inspector (who is notoriously fussy) could not find fault. The building work was carried out another builder who consulted Mark on technical issues. Mark's expertise was apparent as the builder was more than happy to comply with Mark's advice even thought it meant more work for him. The build was completed on time and in budget. The pricing structure for the plans was very clear and we were very happy with the results. Mark is friendly, approachable and really listens to make sure that he knows what the client wants. We got exactly what we asked for. He has a broad knowledge of planning issues and construction problems and so can give advice easily, professionally and, most importantly, with great clarity. We were delighted with the service we received and would be happy to recommend him to anyone.

Conversions - General- 17 Mar 2022
Brett and his very experienced father took on an awkward job removing a chimney breast, a wall separating a dining room and kitchen, an ugly pair of French windows, a rear door and a window. This required three steel beams, two of which were bolted together at right angles and three lintels. Due to different ceiling heights, getting the overall height of the beams was demanding but it was done well. They fitted a new replacement window and set of bi fold doors. The job was made more difficult by some poor quality brickwork on the rear wall which slowed progress due to extra work to rectify the problem. The electricians and plasterer they used were very good. They also planned and advised on materials for a patio and garden path. I will use them later on in the year for some more work on repointing and wall ties.
