I recently used B.E.L Group Limited for my 6-meter rear extension and couldn't be happier. They handled everything from the initial architectural drawings to submitting the planning applications with the local authority.

If you are looking for an architectural team that combines expertise with genuine care, Rayhan and his team are probably one of the best in the sector.

I used BEL for my HMO change of use application and it was approved after a refusal from a different firm. They gave me a checklist of information I needed to provide - they are very knowledgeable and made the process very easy.
