10 7‑Bed HMO Design & Build Service
Posted 1 week ago
Bianca delivered a brilliant turnkey service on our 7‑bed HMO. She handled the design, planning and build coordination smoothly and professionally, with clear communication throughout. The drawings were accurate, compliant and well‑designed, and the whole process was organised and stress‑free. Highly recommended.Verified reviewerJob location: RG110 Exceptional Design & Delivery on a Grade II Project (SA)

Here’s a polished, friendly review you can use: --- Bianca at Reading Design Studio was an absolute pleasure to work with. She guided us through the design and build of a Grade II listed building, transforming it into five beautifully finished apartments used for service accommodation within an impressive six‑month timeframe. Her attention to detail, clear communication, and deep understanding of heritage constraints made the whole process smooth and stress‑free. We couldn’t be happier with the result and highly recommend her expertise.Verified reviewerJob location: RG110 Highly Recommend Bianca for HMO Planning & Project Management
Posted 17 July 2025
Impressed by Bianca's glowing reviews, I engaged her for the planning of a sui generis 7-bed HMO project in Reading, involving an extension and L-shaped dormer. She proved incredibly knowledgeable, passionate, and ensured a smooth process throughout. We extended our collaboration with Bianca acting as our project manager, where she effectively liaised with builders and building control. Most notably, her amazing staging maximized rental income – we're now securing £950/month for the dormer bedroom. The project's success means I can now get all the funds back through remortgaging.Verified reviewerJob location: RG3010 Turn Key HMO Project
Posted 24 March 2025
We recently completed a 3 to 6 bed HMO conversion project in Reading that included taking the house back to brick and adding an extension and a dormer. From start to finish, the process was seamless. We secured the property at an excellent price, and Bianca expertly managed the construction project, offering a variety of layout and interior design options that truly made the property stand out. We are confident that we will recoup our investment through remortgaging and renting it out to professionals within the first year.Verified reviewerJob location: RG3010 Large garden extension Reading
Posted 03 March 2024
I had initially attempted to engage an online architect for a 6m extension project in Reading. Unfortunately, the plans they provided fell short of plannining approval and lacked crucial details. Thankfully, Bianca came to our rescue. Not only did she secure the approval for us, but she also went the extra mile by suggesting a builder who offered a 20% lower quote. This cost-saving allowed us to invest in interior design elements and upgrade our kitchen, enhancing the overall outcome of the project. Highly recommended!Verified reviewerJob location: RG410 Largen garden extension and interior design gone right
Posted 27 August 2023
Bianca expertly handled our drawings, planning permission, and garden extension design. Her attentive nature and creative approach transformed our extension into a vibrant social hub. Regular site visits ensured top-notch quality. We've already enlisted her for the interior design of our entire home.Verified reviewerJob location: RG4
