Client Testimonials.
“We highly recommend Christine Peever and Sheldon Peever Studio. Christine was our chosen architect to design the extensions to our house and also to help us manage our contractor throughout the build. The designs that Christine delivered were excellent, totally transforming our house, inside and out, ensuring that we achieved a transformation of our house and not just an extension. The plans delivered everything we asked for and allowed us to truly make our house a home that we are proud of.
However, the designs are just one aspect of the value that Christine delivers. We retained Christine throughout our build phase to help work with our chosen contractor (one of the ones Christine recommended). This was really helpful and enabled us to get the best from our contractor and gave us someone we could rely on to work through any challenges and also ensure we all had a clear view of what was included in the original scope versus what was a variation. We had a great experience working with Christine and our contractor and highly recommend her and encourage anyone to retain her services throughout your building project as she will be a major asset and deliver significant value.”
Michael & Natalia, Park Street.
“We chose Sheldon Peever studio for the extension and renovation of our outdated home. Christine really understood our brief and came up with a design that would suit the lifestyle of our young family, but also be able to grow with us. As we weren’t going to be staying in the area whilst the building work was on going Christine managed the entire project. She liaised closely with our chosen contractor and did site visits at least biweekly, really putting our minds at ease. Christine’s experience and knowledge was not only invaluable during the design and build process, but also when helping us choose finishing touches for our home from local suppliers. We are extremely happy with our new home, not only does it provide the space we need but looks better than we could ever have imagined. Thank you Sheldon Peever studio.”
Cassie & Joe, Harpenden.
“Sheldon Peever have helped us transform our home, with a two storey extension to back and side and restructuring at the front of the house. We are delighted with the results. Christine was helpful and knowledgeable from the early planning stage to getting planning permission and then she supervised the build as it progressed. She is personable and friendly and always quick to reply to emails and queries. It was great to know that she was always on hand to smooth out any problems that inevitably crop up when taking on a project of this scale. We are very happy with our new family home!”
Kirsty, St Albans.
“Christine acted for us in the planning and design of a double-storey side/rear extension to our family home. She led us through the process from start through to tendering for a general contractor. Christine proved herself an excellent listener to our requirements and helped us create a design that we are really excited about (currently in build).
Throughout the journey she explained clearly what the process (planning, surveying, tendering, etc) required and managed us well. I would recommend anyone looking to start a similar project to consider working with Sheldon Peever.”
Rena & Hetal, St Albans
“Just completed a house extension and renovation with Sheldon Peever and Christine has been fantastic throughout. She listened to my wishes for the build and incorporated these into her own designs with some brilliant ideas. She provided extremely detailed plans to ensure the build ran smoothly and there were no surprises along the way. Even though the build took place during Covid, Christine was always available either on site or by zoom and worked closely with the builders. I would highly recommend Christine!”
Christine, Wheathampsted
“We very much enjoyed working with Christine. She’s professional, responsive and showed great attention to detail. She immediately recognised what we were trying to achieve and produced a design that was innovative and spot on first time round! Christine also managed to obtain planning permission despite numerous challenges from the committee along the way.”
Kayur, Kings Langley
“Christine has worked with us on two previous projects and she is currently helping us with a third. She and Andy are an incredible team. Patient, practical and very good at designing space and thinking about detail. Never is an idea too crazy and Christine is willing to look at all your dream projects even if they seem unusual and she will find a way to incorporate them into your project. They are an excellent Architectural team.”
Stephanie, Wheathampsted
“Christine Peever came to me to rescue a project left by another architect. She drew immaculate plans, helped me obtain planning permission, and worked closely with my builders to ensure the result was fabulous. She is efficient, charming, imaginative and was extremely kind in the way she dealt with me. Her work was exemplary and I would happily use her again – in fact I have already used her on two projects in my home.”
Jo, Hackney London.
We, after a recommendation chose Sheldon Peever Studio to design the rear and side extension to our existing property, that would give us a bigger kitchen and more space over 2 floors. Christine Peever was the architect who provided us with 3 designs after a face to face meeting arranged to establish our requirements and budget. This was followed by further meetings to finalise the plan. We were impressed with her friendly and helpful manner with which she responded in detail to all our queries for this first phase. Christine then guided us through the planning approval and the other requirements such as party wall and sewerage permits. She also provided us with contact information and recommendation for builders and materials giving guidance as to a range of cost and quality for material suppliers. We were also very pleased with the prompt response to both our telephone and email questions. We have no regrets in our choice of architect and would have no hesitation to recommend Christine Peever to others who need a professional, competent and helpful architect.
Joe and Penny, Chiswell Green
Sheldon Peever Studio (Christine and Andrew) provided an excellent client service from start to finish, before and during the build. Amazing attention to detail, and expert knowledge of internal and external planning and coordinated works. Definitely recommend to anyone needing renovations to the home.
