Ra Architects
We worked with local security firm 'Select Security' on the redevelopment of their headquarters in Monmouthshire. The scheme included large open plan offices, a workshop, bespoke glazed gable designs and timer cladding. Here at RA Architects, we believe in sourcing sustainable materials. That's why it is fantastic to get an insight into the homes of the future, will they be eco-friendly?

According to the Metro, "Consciously crafting your interiors to something that suits your tastes can positively affect the mind and has the power to boost your wellbeing". What do you think? Let us know below. Neil and Rachel We asked Richard Andrews to draw up an initial design to extend our mid 1800s farmhouse.

We were really impressed by how well Lewis and Antonella listened to us and understood our vision - the designs they created really were in line with what we wanted but also included some really clever details that we would never have thought of. Following the initial rejection of our planning application, they recommended a planning consultant and then worked together, drawing up revised designs as directed while keeping our vision in mind.

Designed and converted our stables into a one bedroom annex with home office, and did an outstanding job. Richard himself oversaw the project and kept in regular contact with me, updating me throughout.
Honest and transparent from day one with regards to project costs and potential issues.
We now have a beautiful annex for guests to stay in, and a state of the art office with views for me to work from.
I will be using Richard Andrews for future projects and can recommend this business highly.

Have caused me enormous stress over several years (from 2015).
Failed to locate public sewers at outset. Had to have my own sewer survey done. Then had to negotiate with Welsh Water for Building Over agreement which required changes to the original plans. That took another year.
Employed incompetent builders who took a year to build an extension and left many faults behind. Even now there are faults needing rectification (Feb 2020).
I have given up dealing with this company.

We instructed Richard Andrews to do our property renovation and design in Saundersfoot and what a fabulous company they are. The ultimate professionals, nothing is ever too much trouble and their attention to detail is second to none . The drawings and ideas that they have done are fabulous and suggested things to save us money. Richard is always on the end of the phone for advice and support and we would not hesitate to recommend to all of our contacts, friends and family and we look forward to a long working relationship with the team as we start investing in more property projects.

RA Architects are a great firm who help with planning permission and building design. Would definitely recommend them to others looking for help with house builds, extensions and all other projects!
