Testimonials

Should have had this several years ago. Concise , accurate, informative, all things that facilitate accurate presentation for both Building Control and the client. 

Gordon - Architect

I am a planner and as such my knowledge about the technical side of designing loft extension is very limited, but your book is helping me to understand more. It is well written with a lot of fantastic information.  

Tommy - Planner

I have been working as a building design consultant for over 25 years, providing construction drawing for residential projects. I have found the book very informative and the details have made me look at the way I present my construction drawings, as the details are very helpful in portraying how a building fits together.  This helps when explaining to contractors. Thank you for your hard work, I have definitely benefited from it.

Gary - Architect

It has been very helpful in broadening my knowledge of construction, what used to be grey areas in my understanding are now bright and clear. Thanks very much!
