A1 Planning Portal Ltd reviews (180)

Rustem gave us an outstanding service from start to finish on our project. Having placed the advert, there were no end of interested architects and with a wide ranging scale of prices! We spoke to a few of them after reading the reviews and invites Rustem to come and look the place over. He drove down the next day and diligently looked everything over, measuring and remeasuring all of the house in it's entirety. We needed full planning permission as it was an extension that we wanted to convert into the house (garage). We knew what we were after and Rustem sent us drawings within 48hrs for our approval. Totally amazing! The plans had changed from what we had spoken about and Rustem had vision beyond what we have thought of. Such were his ideas that we settled on them straight away and the plans were submitted the following day! Planning permission is always a pain but Rustem submitted them for us and followed them up, even having to complete a biodiversity assessment as well when that popped up! Nothing was too much and he felt part of our project team throughout. When the engineering calculations were drawn up, he dealt directly with them to iron out and discrepancies to ensure the plans were clear and concise. Rustem followed the planning through to being granted and also promptly presented the building regs drawings and details so that these could be submitted through the builder. The house is now well under way and we are so thankful for choosing Rustem! Top man!!!

Rustem is very professional. We liked his interest in our project and he has calmly clarified all our questions. I would highly recommend him.

Rustem was absolutely fantastic. Would highly recommend. Great comms, standard of work and very timely in replying to emails & texts etc. He also kept me informed and has a very high level of professionalism and knowledge.

Rustem is a professional who skilfully navigated the council approval process for my project. He was approachable, updated me every step of the process and was in touch throughout the process. I highly recommend him based on my experience. Thanks

Honestly lack the words to express the level of Selfless service received from Rustem (A1 Planning Portal). Rustem completed my building reg drawings, it was super timely, great communication through the process. Rustem also goes above and beyond to support in clearing any challenges encountered during the actual build. An excellent job done for a very reasonable (less than market price). I wouldn't even get such level of service from other architects I have used in the past that have charged exorbitant prices.

Very pleased with Rustem’s work. Professional approach at a very reasonable cost. Made the whole planning application process very easy.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation for service provided to us by A1 Planning Portal Ltd. We hired A1 Planning to prepare designs and drawings for a side extension so that we could have an ensuite bathroom for our disabled daughter. During the consultation we explained our requirements to Mr Rustem and accordingly he prepared the drawings taking into account all our requirements. The design passed through the council without any issues, Mr Rustem comes across as a thorough gentleman and very professional. Also Mr Rustem's fees were very reasonable compared to other architects. We thank Mr Rustem for the great job!!

An excellent job done at a reasonable price. Rustem attended promptly and provided plans promptly. Will use again!

Rustem drew up plans for my loft conversion in 2021 and due to several delays on my side, we have only just almost completed the building work. He was always available to adjust the plans, make changes or even to answer questions. We received a fantastic service from him long after the plans were drawn and payment made to him. It says a lot about a person that is still happy to to communicate with you 2 years after he has been paid. I am extremely happy with Rustem and his work ethic, as well as the quality of his work. I would definitely use him again and highly recommend him. Thank you so much Rustem

We were very pleased with all the services provided by Rustem. From the beginning He was freally clear on the scope of the work, he gave us a really competitive rate, the communication was constant and always to a high standard. When we received a challenge to our application from a neighbor, Rustem dealt incredibly well with Islington council, even the officer told us during a site visit that he was really helpful providing all additional info and documentation. Ultimately, our project got full approval and we are extremely happy with the results, will definetely use again and recommend his services.
