Martin did an excellent job in completing the plans for our front and back extension and submitting the application. There was a number of changes required during the approval process and Martin was always on hand to make the changes. The extension application got approved.Martin is very thorough and always on hand to help throughout the application process.

Great service and quick turn around times. Martin was responsive through out the the design process and helped us with numerous redesigns to get to the final plan. Very experienced working with the council which has meant a smooth and quick approval process.

Martin, who is a former builder as well, did drawings and dealt with the planning dept for an extension to our house. Excellent work, would highly recommend!

Martin did the plans for our side extension to house a downstairs shower room and office at the start of the year and was fantastic. After telling him what we wanted to he was quick to make alternative suggestions as about how we could achieve this and make the best use of the space. He was approachable and always willing to answer questions and happy to amend the drawings until. He made sure that we were completely happy with final design before submitting the drawings for planning permission.Although we didn't end up using his services for the build itself I highly recommend Martin Ballard.

Martin drew up the detail plans for my loft conversion/extension. Very good communication & visited multiple times. He had some great suggestions and I ended up with a much better design than was previous expected. Highly recommended

Martin undertook all the drawings for our extension making all the necessary submissions to the council and building control on our behalf. He took time to understand our needs and was very flexible. His work was of a high quality and reasonably priced. We were very pleased with the results.

I was very pleased with Martin Ballard's design of my new extension, providing me with a fabulous new kitchen, dining room and study. I am really pleased as to how it has turned out, and better than I imagined.I was delighted with the work both Chris and Dave did in building and converting everything. Nothing was too much trouble for them, their attention to detail making sure everything was right and their thoughtfulness as to how things could be altered to enhance the project even more. There workmanship has been to a really high standard with other trades commenting upon it positively and as importantly they turned up when they said they would and stayed until the job was finished. I never felt I was going to be left with the work half finished. So thank you to you and the boys for doing such a great job.I have already recommended Martin and his two builders: Chris and Dave to a friend, and will continue to do so.

Martin came to see us today. We were very pleased with his knowledge and ideas. He certainly made us think very differently with his questions regarding our motives to our project. Should we eventually decide to move forward in our thoughts we would have no hesitation in giving our project to him.

If you need anything done do not contact this company. I have emailed them and left a telephone message on the number advertised. Up to this point I have not heard from them. It?s been a waste of time and effort on my part.

Ballard Lofts, specifically Jesse & team have just completed a loft conversion (bedroom and en-suite) and a reconfigure of first floor. They have been a pleasure to work with, helpful, efficient, tidy and the standard of work is excellent. I would highly recommend.

Very happy with Martin and his services. He had a good turnaround without feeling rushed. From start to finish always on call. Happy to answer questions and was easy to talk to. He answered questions that are second nature to him without making us feel silly. Would use again and asking for a quote for building works to be done.
