SJP turns 10 today.
Ten years ago, I registered SJP as a side hustle after leaving architecture to move into project management for a housebuilder.
For the next few years, every evening, weekend and spare hour went into building the business alongside a full time job. Then, in 2019, I took the leap and went all in.
📸 2019 – A spare room at home, one dog for company and plenty of ambition.
📸 2020 – Our first office in Downend. The step from working alone in a spare room to building a team and growing the business.
📸 Today – Our office on Bath Road. A team of four, delivering everything from planning and building regs for extensions, loft conversions and small sites, through to technical drawing packages for large housing developments.
Having spent several years working within a housebuilder, I understand what technical teams need from their consultants. It’s why we focus on clear communication, responsiveness and getting the details right, whether we’re delivering technical drawing packages for housebuilders or planning and building regulations for homeowners.
Looking back, I'm grateful to every client who's trusted us and every member of the team who has helped shape SJP over the last decade.
Reaching 10 years is something I'm incredibly proud of, but it also feels like we're only just getting started.
If you've got a housing development or a home extension project coming up, let's talk.
