What our clients say

Judith Nash

AVA reconfigured the layout of our downstairs rooms and quickly identified a solution that works beautifully for our family. We now have a combined kitchen and dining space with a separate snug — it has completely transformed how we live. Everyone is so impressed with the spaces AVA designed. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Deleasa Davis

AVA inspired me with their ideas and worked within my budget to create a light, airy kitchen diner and snug that transformed how we live.

 

I didn’t think it was possible, but I now have my dream kitchen!

 

The team checked in regularly to make sure everything ran smoothly. I can’t recommend AVA enough.

Nancy Harper
I can’t thank AVA enough. They turned my bungalow into a home that’s perfect for my mobility needs but still looks lovely. They handled everything — layout, electrics, kitchen, bathroom, even furniture and colour choices — and made it all so easy. What I thought would be daunting became simple and enjoyable.

We recommend her without hesitation."  - Ben & Nina, Smallwood, Cheshire
