Hi everyone,


I wanted to recommend our fabulous architect Jacqueline (from Green & Teggin). She designed a STUNNING rear extension for us which we are really happy with.


The brief was challenging as we had major light issues with our neighbour so for her to overcome them easily was such a relief. Jackie came up with clever, simple and creative solutions which doubled our living space.


When I started looking for architects, I decided to hunt around as I wanted to be sure of finding someone that was creative and could provide effective solutions for our light restrictions. I ended up meeting with 5 of them and explained our challenges and brief. Most of the architects I met didn't fill me with confidence. I was worried they wouldn't design anything that our neighbour would be happy with and most didn't even follow up with me after our initial meeting. However, Jackie gave me so many ideas in our initial meeting that I knew she was the one. From that meeting on, we went back and forth with various designs which our neighbour signed off and we were very pleased with.


We've just had planning approval so we are very excited about the next stage which Green & Teggin are also helping us with.


If you are looking for an architect that really understands space, light and the intricacies of Victorian properties then Jackie is your lady. Professional and very creative. We couldn't be happier.


Contact me for a reference.

Hi Uns


I called Green and Teggin and was really surprised to find that they charge ?250 for a first meeting which is the design consultation - there's no opportunity to meet first to see their portfolio and whether you get on creatively, whether they understand your needs etc


They also said they're really busy and only want a job that will cost ?100k build! I have no idea how much the build will cost but they said that unless it's a ?100k budget and the job interests them then they're too busy.


Wow, they really must be busy!!

I had a great experience with them and found them to be very helpful. I looked at their designs online before our meeting (to make sure I liked their creative output) and Jackie was excellent with designs and correspondence.


They may be busy, but they are very good.

Thanks Uns


We really appreciate your support, and thanks to everyone on the forum who has supported us over the years, we have been very touched by your comments.


Ninbi, we are really sorry we were unable to help you on this occasion. It is true, we are busy at the moment and we are very careful not to take on more work that we can comfortably handle, as a husband and wife team, to ensure that we maintain a high standard of work.


Ideally, we would like to help everybody that comes to us, and as such, we devised the design/ideas consultation to give design advice at the very beginning of a project, where it can make the most difference and stop regretful decisions being made. The consultation involves one of us coming to your property, discussing your requirements and how you prefer to live, measuring up the areas you would like to change and then drawing scaled plan options whilst there that are realistic for a give budget and show the full potential of your property. We have had very positive feedback about this service.


In general, we take on a new project every six to eight weeks and when we are looking, we do offer free consultations. We will be looking for a new project in the next few weeks, and to vary our portfolio, we will be looking for a slightly larger, or small but quirky project.


We have loved working on our East Dulwich projects so far and look forward to continuing to do so in the future.


All the best


Jacqueline Green

My wife and I asked Jackie and Tom to help us with a complete overhaul of our Victorian semi. They were absolutely phenomenal throughout. Jackie was patient and attentive to us throughout the design process, making a number of terrific suggestions which we ultimately incorporated. Through the tender and build phase, Tom was diligent and thorough in keeping the builders on track, and making sure they executed properly. Their personal approach was really valuable for us, especially as we had never done anything like this before.

Thoroughly recommended, happy to be contacted for references.

    • Yes—- not phone at all - got that checked out last week. is an id issue—  works for you… just drop it now - you are really like a dog with a bone..!! Oh, asked for another sim las year - as refused.. Tried again this year and never received it…   
    • I grew up on the neighbouring Denmark Hill estate and had friends on the Champion Hill estate (now known I think as the Cleve Hall estate) and both have always been a nice  place to live with friendly neighbours and have great transport links etc.  Lots of flats/houses have obviously been bought over the years and Southwark Council have also auctioned off a lot of their properties in the area that become vacant over the years, rather than putting them back into the system. Just to say that council tenants are not having any repairs/maintenance on blocks that they live in done for free as they are paying rent!   
    • Did you see my post above where iD suggested to someone else with your problems that it could be a sim or device issue? Why are you so sure it isn't your phone that has developed a fault? Phones can and do go wrong (reinstalling the app would not help if your phone itself is faulty). To test this out:  Have you tried your SIM card in somebody else's phone? If they don't have connection problems, then the fault is with your phone (though see below - your SIM card could be faulty, in which case this test wouldn't work). Have you tried somebody else's SIM card in your phone? If you still have the same connection problems, then the fault is with your phone. Both of those tests would tell you if the problem was with your phone rather than the network. Only if  the connection problems continued would the problem probably be with the iD network. Have you asked for another SIM card to try out (with the same phone number, obviously!) in case your SIM card has become faulty? Have you tried their live chat (link above) which they say can help with further troubleshooting? These things would be quite quick and easy to do, and could save you a lot of time and inconvenience changing providers!
