Highlights
"Marcus was extremely professional and responsive, providing and submitting extension plans to the planning approval authority in Guildford. Highly recommend."
"We would highly recommend Marcus and MB Designs! We have two projects on the go and Marcus has done a brilliant job of drawing up the plans and submitting planning applications. He listened to what we were trying to achieve, offered very helpful advice and his designs are not only just what we wanted but thanks to his meticulous attention to detail and knowledge of local planning and building regs both have been given planning permission."
"Marcus did a great job at drawing up the plans for our bungalow extension. He was very thorough and gave great attention to detail. He offered a lot of advice and went above and beyond with the drawings to help us envisage the space properly and was always available to answer any additional questions we had. Would highly reccomend."

"Architect" is a title protected by law - only people on the official Architects Register (held by ARB) may use it. Confirm they're on it before you commission a design.
Check the Architects RegisterSmart checks
Before you hire an architect
Only someone on the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register may legally call themselves an 'architect' in the UK — ask for their ARB number and check it free at arb.org.uk. An 'architectural designer' or 'technologist' is a different, unregistered role (often capable, but not the same protection).
Agree how they charge before any work starts — a percentage of the build cost, a fixed fee, or an hourly rate — and exactly which stages it covers (concept design, planning application, building-regulations drawings, work on site), so there are no surprises later.
Confirm what they will actually handle versus what is excluded — the planning application, the building-control drawings, and whether they will administer the builder's contract on site — and get it, and a portfolio of similar projects, in writing.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
