“I can see on the DDC planning website that our planning application has been granted!!! Whoop Whoop! Thank you for all your tireless work in getting this bid through! I really do appreciate it.”

Michelle Noden, Whinless Down Academy Trust

“Richard and his team are extremely knowledgeable and professional. They clearly have very high standards for themselves. I have never been let down in meeting deadlines.

I set extremely high standards. I acknowledge myself that I am the queen of unreasonable expectations. I would say that Richard and his team are one of few companies that meet these expectations on a consistent basis.”

Alison Moon, Veritas MAT

“All of the Carre Consultancy staff that we have worked with have been highly professional in all aspects of the deliverance of our projects, they have ensured the projects have run smoothly and have responded quickly to any concerns or queries. We were kept well informed by email / telephone / meetings as the projects progressed and all documentation received was clear, concise and of good quality. The amount of time the school had to be involved in the project delivery was minimal.

We would have no hesitation in highly recommending Carre Consultancy to other academies or organisations.”

Clare Parker, Towers School Academy Trust

“The quality of work could not be better. We feel we are involved as much as we need to and would like to be, and have never had to worry about any aspect of the project. Communication is never a problem – either email or phone calls.”

“I have used Carré on two separate occasions now, on behalf of my Trustees, and found them to be very professional. They ensured the work was carried out to a very high standard by the preferred contractor.”

Charles Mara, School Governor

“Having only ever bought a new build property I was very nervous about buying an older property and the problems which might occur with doing so. However, working with Richard has made the whole process so much easier. He has been a fabulous at explaining and answering all our questions, professional and also his fees are competitive. I think it spoke volumes about his competency when our solicitor commented what a detailed and comprehensive report she had received and I’m sure she sees lots every day. Richards was a pleasure to work with, and we will be using him again to draw up our plans for extension.”

Helen Smith-Tomlinson

“I was recommended Carre’ Consultancy from a good friend of mine who works at an architect’s firm and I have been very impressed at how punctual, personable and helpful Richard has been throughout the whole process. We are in the process of buying the leasehold for a 1920s shop and Richard’s expertise and advice have been extremely helpful. I would not hesitate to use Richard again in the future and would not think twice to recommend him to friends and family.”

Sarah Struthers

“We are in the process of buying a house in Whitstable and have been absolutely delighted at the excellent service we have received from Richard. We were just at the point of arranging a survey when the Covid-19 lockdown came into force and this caused us a lot of anxiety, as we were unable to travel from London to organise anything. Thankfully, Richard stayed in touch throughout and was ready to undertake the survey promptly once restrictions were eased. Communication, both written and on the phone, has been prompt and helpful, Richard negotiated respectfully with our vendors on our behalf and provided a detailed report in a very short space of time, including recommendations and a helpful summary. Richard was also helpful in signposting us to other services in the area, which has saved us valuable time. Highly recommended! Thank you, Richard.”
