Architectural Design- Extension (1 storey), Worsley, Manchester, Mr A Christie - August 2020My partner and I used your website to obtain details of local architects for our unique house renovation project. The website was easy to use and gave a number of good architects who we had contact with. Michael Cummings, a chartered architect did provide us excellent support, advising on possible layout options and understanding our personal position. I would highly recommend Micheal for his personalised and friendly approach with good local knowledge of the area.
Architectural Services, C.Jones - January 2020Good design ideas. He worked promptly and efficiently and had a nice sense of humour.

Architectural Services, Altrincham, Jennifer - June 2018Excellent advice, excellent service
Architectural Services, Wilmslow, P Murphy - June 2018Michael worked hard to win us planning approval, despite refusal upheld by appeal,some years before. He was able to recommend a reliable builder, and oversee their work on our behalf. His advice along the way was invaluable to us from design to completion.
Architectural, Altrincham, Jo - January 2018Promptness of response : Helpful advice and guidance
Party Wall, Manchester, Keith - June 2017
Promptness of response : I received a prompt email and brief outline document to complete, backed up by telephone and further emails to confirm details etc..
Quality of service : I received excellent advice, support and guidance throughout from Mike Cummings at CA&D Architects. His explanation of the system and methods of approach provided me with a path forward, without which I would have been stuck. Mike's rationalisation along with sense of humour really made a difference. I would thoroughly recommend CA&D Architects.
Value for money : Sometimes reassurance can be priceless.
Professionalism : A personal, professional, precise and pleasant person to deal with, Mike has a pragmatic and rational method of approach with explanations and background through out.
