“As a property developer I’ve worked with many an architect and to be honest Richards forward thinking and approach to problem solving is second to none. We have worked on projects requiring many changes and Richard takes it in his stride, nothing being too much hassle. ARC are my number 1 choice every time.”
"We appointed Arc Survey & Design Consultants in February 2020 as our architects and project managers for the construction of a 19,000 square foot warehouse extension at the rear of an existing factory. Two and a half years later the project was signed off on budget and on time. Richard Garnett produced the design and Damian Cleveland managed the project from start to completion. This included helping us appoint the main protagonists and managing the project through to completion on our behalf. They were outstanding – they dealt with issues and challenges which inevitably cropped up, which allowed us to focus on running our business. I cannot recommend them highly enough."
“We are just finishing off a house extension/refurbishment to plans drawn up by ARC. Richard listened carefully to our brief and, after several iterations, came up with a great design that is sympathetic to the spirit of the original property. We’re more than happy to recommend Richard.”
