EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked alongside Lesley Hally and her team for a mutual client on their Hampshire home extension and renovation project. The LA Hally team had produced a beautiful architectural design for the building and I was brought in by the client as the interior designer on this project to provide the next level of detail. Lesley was a huge help and always supplied me with the most up-to-date information. Lesley and her team were also excellent project managers and ensured that all the trades were accommodating my clients design decisions along the way. The end result was a great one and this was largely due to the great 'building envelope' produced by LA Hally with lots of carefully considered details. I would highly recommend this diligent and creative team of people.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ultra-efficient and very easy to work with. I'd definitely recommend Lesley and her team. Clear advice from the get-go and a very responsive and attentive service.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is our first renovation project, and having LA Hally Architects guide us through the process has been absolutely invaluable. From the outset, Lesley created a design that not only exceeded our expectations but was also deeply thoughtful and perfectly aligned with how we envisioned living in our home. Lesley and her team are meticulous in their attention to detail and consistently excellent with communication. They successfully navigated a complex planning process in a conservation area, ensuring the full design was approved without compromise. Weâre currently mid-build and really looking forward to seeing it all come together. Itâs been a very positive experience working with the team, and we wouldnât hesitate to work with them again in the future.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lesley and her team - great communicators - always flagging up issues and potential issues. Although we didnât go for a fully managed approach as it was quite a small build, Lesley was always helpful with any questions we had along the way. Very clear style; good design options.

They listened to our needs and ideas and designed solutions that nailed the brief with practicality and creative flare. They were flexible, supportive, detail-focused and excellent at communicating with us throughout. Not a fault to be found and would use them again without hesitation. Thanks, Team!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lesley and her team were fundamental in getting a difficult planning application and amendments in a sensitive area across the line under the hardest of circumstances, which included during Covid lockdowns and isolation and at the sharp end of the implementation of novel Nitrate Neutrality regulations; and some rather curious trial examination procedures by the Local Authority. The project was overseen by Lesley and led by Amelia, who was expert in discussions with the Local Authority and Natural England over these new environmental rules and emergency regulations. LA Hally were the the first in the region to get a small development through Nitrate Neutrality with the Local Authority using this project as a test case. Landscape, design, roadside vernacular, and a Highways Authority built access which then needed a Certificate of Lawful Development were all handled by Lesley and her team brilliantly and with minimal stress. I couldn't be more grateful for their professionalism, diligence, hard work and expertise. Thank you!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lesley and the team at LA Halley offer an ideal combination of creativity, attention to detail, professionalism and a warm, down-to-earth approachability. Thanks to a collaborative and flexible approach to problem solving, they helped bring to life our ideas for an extension - all while offering new ideas and practical solutions that kept our lifestyle and family needs at the forefront. The process has resulted in designs for a truly liveable space, delivered with the aesthetic flair and creativity that you'd want from an architect. Along with the positive customer experience, Lesley and the team have driven forward the planning and building control stages with utmost professionalism to keep things smoothly progressing forward.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We started working with Lesley Hally and her team in November 2023. Over the next 14 months we jointly designed, planned, and successfully obtained planning approval for a 370 sq metre house. At every stage Lesley and Amelia guided us through the process in a most professional way. They were on top of the many requirements necessary for obtaining the planning approval, approving contractors for the project, putting together the bid documents and most importantly reviewing and sorting the bid results. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble . We were both impressed by their use of advanced (to us) computer techniques and imaging. The video of the planned new house was particularly impressive. We would not hesitate to recommend LA Hally Architects to anyone seeking to build a house, a small office development perhaps, or wanting to undertake a large extension or renovation. Great people to deal with.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredible team. Creative, supportive, innovative and professional. They will take time to understand your needs, style and ideas then take it beyond this to deliver such vision. From the initial creative planning and concept stages right to the final project handover this team are exceptional. They are detail focused whilst still being creatively free. Finding an architect can be daunting but they made the full process accessible, enjoyable and delivered beyond our expectations. We now have a gorgeous home. Thank you team LA Hally.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lesley and her team worked with us to design a double storey extension with new double garage and project managed the build from start to finish. It was effectively a complete rebuild, with the whole house being refurbished and remodelled in addition to the new extension. All the way through the process they were absolutely fantastic and guided us through the ups and downs of the project. We're over the moon with the end result and would most definitely recommend LA Hally to anyone considering a project of their own.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
