Sandy from Block 9 designed a 9m x 5.5m extension for us with a beautiful 'butterfly' roof in NW Edinburgh . The design is bright, airy, spacious and a delight to spend time in. Sandy showed wonderful patience in dealing with what turned out to be a very, very difficult builder! Sandy's communication and abililty to work with Edinburgh planning was second to none and even a last minute necessity to raise the roof height was turned around in record time. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend Block 9 to anyone looking for the design and delivery of even the most complex construction.
Block 9 Architects designed and obtained planning consent for 3 town houses despite strong local opposition to the development. Sandy and Stephanie were not only excellent during the design phase but also very strategic and practical when considering the headwinds we faced. Their fees were reasonable, advice sound and the eventual product / result was a great success. I can highly recommend Block 9 Architects for both domestic and commercial projects. It was a pleasure working with them.
Brief to open up the small kitchen and add floor to ceiling windows. Very professional service and came up with many great ideas. Always on hand when needed would certainly reccomend Block 9 to anyone looking for an architect in Edinburgh.
As total novices to self building we are very appreciative of the help and guidance Sandy at Block 9 has given us over the past few years. They listened and took note of all requirements and managed to include them all in our design. The build is now nearing completion but we know we can always pick up the phone for advice anytime. We would not hesitate to recommend Sandy and his team to help with all types of projects commercial or residential.
We, at SRA Ventures Ltd, have been dealing with the team at Block 9, mainly Sandy Anderson and Mark Donaghy, for over a year now. They have dealt with 6 different projects ranging from subdivision of industrial property, change of use and planning. They are very knowledge in all aspects of commercial and residential property. I find Sandy and Mark highly professional, efficient and competitive. They are able to take the project of the client's hands and deliver the result with minimum intervention from the client. They are a delight to work with and would highly recommend them to deal with any property projects.
