Dawley Architectural Limited in short

Dawley Architectural Limited is a Dawley practice offering new builds, extensions, loft and barn conversions with planning and building-control applications [1] [2]. Phone, email and the King Street address are all published, and the company has been active on the record since 2017 [1] [3]. The site covers conversions and listed-building work in-house [1] [2]. Planning and building-control applications are covered in-house [1] [2].

Past customers rate the practice at full marks so far, with Google reviews giving 5 from 4 reviews [6]. With fewer than five reviews, that score counts for less than a larger base would [6]. No fee scale, hourly rate, call-out fee or VAT position is published on the site [1] [2]. Phone, email and street address are published together on the site [1] [2].

Dawley Architectural Limited is listed rather than ranked because a page on the practice site presents the business as Shropshire Chartered Architects while the ARB register lists no architect of the director's name [2] [4] [5].

In our judgement, the practice suits a straightforward Dawley extension or conversion where direct contact matters [1]. The clear service range and full-marks reviews count in its favour, while the chartered wording against a blank ARB record, with no fees or insurance detail, counts firmly against it [2] [4] [1]. This review finds a contactable local practice whose title wording does not check out. The company has been active since February 2017 [3].

Our verdict

Our judgement: Dawley suits you for a straightforward Dawley extension or conversion, with direct phone and email contact and a small set of five-star reviews [1] [6].

Questions about Dawley Architectural Limited

Is Dawley Architectural Limited any good?

The practical signs are fair: a clear service range with planning work in-house, direct phone and email contact, and Google reviews giving 5 from 4 reviews [1] [2] [6]. The serious mark against it is the chartered wording on the site with no matching ARB listing, plus no fees or insurance detail [2] [4]. In our judgement it suits simple local jobs, listed rather than ranked.

Is Dawley Architectural Limited an ARB-registered practice?

That can't be sourced as claimed. A page on the practice site presents the business as Shropshire Chartered Architects, yet the ARB register searched lists no architect of the director's name [2] [4] [5]. The director is named on the company officers record [5]. That mismatch is why the practice is listed rather than ranked.

Why is Dawley Architectural Limited not ranked?

What does Dawley Architectural Limited charge?

What do the reviews of Dawley Architectural Limited say?
