Alex Depledge, CEO & co-founder, Resi.co.uk said:

“In 18 months, Resi.co.uk has powered the completion of 350 projects that have added nearly £80 million in value to homes across the UK. It’s a testament to the power of great design, and how much homeowners can benefit from having that design made accessible to them. At Resi, we’re using technology to open up the once elite service of architecture, and allowing everyday homeowners to benefit. We want to bring a step change in design that ends the association of the UK housing market with substandard design and build. It is time that the process of home improvement is made easier and more affordable to the benefit of every homeowner, builder and the housing market as a whole.”
