As a small RIBA chartered practice, we offer a personal service. Unlike most design & build firms, we are architects with our own directly employed, highly skilled, construction team. We are not builders who employ a designer to do drawings. This gives us complete control to ensure the highest design & construction standards, combining both disciplines allows a balanced ethos, based on the integrity of the aesthetic and the available budget.
The main emphasis of our past work is bespoke residential property, including both new build & renovation. However, our experience ranges from office blocks to tree houses, schools to climbing centres and we pride ourselves on being able to identify the hidden potential of any space. Around half of the 600+ schemes we have designed were constructed by our own workforce, supplemented where necessary by specialist subcontractors and craftsmen.

After meeting with many architects we chose Elkins to design our new build family home due to their enthusiasm and excitement about the project, as well their undoubted expertise. This enthusiasm never waned throughout the whole process and we could not be happier with the result.
Their creative design far exceeded our expectations and has given us a family home we could not have dared to dream of. It was, however, their professionalism in negotiating the planning process, liaising on our behalf with the bank and tightly managing the whole build process that left us feeling particularly grateful

We engaged Elkins to design a second storey extension to our c.1750 home and Rich and the team couldn't have done a better job. Through several meetings with the lead architect they designed exactly what we wanted and we were consulted on every stage of the meticulous planning process. They went above and beyond to help us negotiate the requirements of local planning department and ensured the plans were sympathetic to the aesthetics of our house while also providing us with much needed extra space.
