Shepherd Architecture and Surveying

We believe that great architecture is the perfect marriage of creative ambition and technical reality. At Shepherd Architecture And Surveying, we don't just draw plans; we manage the entire lifecycle of a building, ensuring that every design is as practical and sustainable as it is beautiful.

Our team operates across the North West, with a strong presence in Cumbria, the Wirral, and Cheshire. We have built a reputation for delivering high-quality results in the domestic, commercial, and educational sectors, often working on projects that require a sensitive touch and a deep understanding of the local landscape.

Award-Winning Residential Design

We are perhaps best known for our work on 'Laburnum' in Wallasey, a contemporary new-build eco-home that was named a Grand Designs Finalist for Best Eco Home. This project encapsulates our approach to domestic architecture: using innovative materials and sustainable technology to create homes that are fit for the future.

Whether you are looking to build a bespoke new home, convert a traditional structure like our project at Congleton Barn, or extend an existing property, we bring the same level of award-winning detail to every brief.

Specialists in Education and Community Hubs

Our track record in the education sector is extensive. We have successfully delivered projects for over 20 schools across the region, including:

• Leven Valley C.E. Primary School: Creating bio-diverse green roof learning spaces.
• Walney Hub: Designing a 3200m² kitesurfing and community centre at Earnse Bay.
• St. Bernard’s Catholic High School: Managing complex refurbishments and extensions.

We understand the unique pressures of working within live school environments and the importance of creating spaces that inspire both teachers and pupils.

Why Clients Trust Our Approach

We offer a comprehensive service that bridges the gap between a traditional architect and a building surveyor. This means we don't just hand over a design and walk away; we stay involved to ensure the build matches the vision.

"Our mission is to provide a seamless transition from the first sketch to the final site inspection, ensuring every project is delivered with precision and professional integrity."

From Concept to Completion

By providing both Architectural Services and Contract Administration, we act as your professional advocate on-site. We manage the relationship with contractors, monitor progress, and ensure that the technical specifications are met to the letter. This dual expertise is why homeowners and commercial clients alike trust us to handle their most ambitious projects.
