To begin, I want to educate you about the disadvantages of the more traditional method.
We understand that with a full-time job, you may not have the time or resources to spend on your project. Furthermore, communicating with a variety of people can be tiresome, sometimes not knowing who you are talking to or what their role is within your project.
Some of the many important roles that you will need to play when embarking on your construction project are:
- Finding the right design teams
- Liaising with a team of consultants
- Organising the project schedule
- Ensuring all specialists are collaborating effectively
While this may sound exciting to some, it can begin to take its toll on you, and you may lose passion for what you have started designing in the first place.
This is where a turn-key provider comes in.
What is a Turn-Key Service in Architecture Terms?
As the name would suggest, imagine a long hallway split into segments by a series of locked doors. Each key can only be obtained once the door in front of it has been opened, allowing you to pass through to the next stage.
By incorporating specialists from many different disciplines within the same field and creating a systemised workflow for each of them to stick to, a practice declares themselves, ‘Turn-Key,’ but what exactly does this mean?
Here at Extension Architecture, our team consists of Architects, Planning Consultants, Structural Engineers, Interior Designers, Kitchen & Bathroom Specialists & Project Managers, who can see through the latter stages of a design project and plan ahead of time for all eventualities.
By having specialists from each field in-house, this means that we can all collaborate efficiently to bring your project to life and advise you from the start to achieve the best results on time and within budget.

With all of the necessary specialists in one place, you can be sure that the advice you receive has been thoroughly researched and put forward with a clear understanding of your individual project objectives. Be it a small detail in your kitchen or a complex planning submission, we are here to help.
From day 1, one of our team will visit your property to conduct an initial, measured survey. From then, either through a series of online meetings or in-person visits, your allocated designer will guide you to securing all of the necessary consents and sign-offs before commencing on site. Furthermore, they will remain just a call away to discuss the finer details as your project progresses into the interior design stage, in doing so ensuring that no detail is overlooked and the final product is exactly what you envisioned.
