    L & M Berriman


    With the builder/architect combination it really felt like they ‘had our back’ and were working with us to build a house that, not only we would be proud of, but one they took pride in also and this was certainly the case.
    We really enjoyed the whole build process from concept design through until final consent and moving in. We loved coming to site each day seeing the progress, being on hand to answer any questions, attending site meetings and generally feeling an integral part of the process which makes the final outcome so much more satisfying.
