Testimonials

We had the pleasure of working with Tidal for our extensive regeneration project of The Granville Theatre, Ramsgate. From our initial meeting through to project delivery, Brian and Ayesha were always on hand to meet, discuss, collaborate and give welcome ideas and were the perfect fit for us. Their family ethos and love for undertaking projects that benefit others was what really stood out to us, and their work in obtaining planning permission was thorough and creative. We look forward to working with them again in the future!

It was a joy to work with Tidal on our side extension. Brian & Ayesha are professional, friendly and open and have a collaborative and creative approach. They were happy to incorporate our ideas but also challenged us to explore options we had not considered previously. They worked closely with us and the builder to make sure it was achievable within the budget. The design transformed our kitchen &living area into a beautiful, light-filled space which is a joy to spend time in. We can't recommend them highly enough.

Mr G & Mrs K, Ramsgate

Working with Brian and Ayesha has been an absolute pleasure. Our budget was a quarter of what we had hoped for yet we have ended up with one of the best dance studios in North London. The young people of Islington are extremely lucky to have benefitted from Tidal's backing! We will be forever grateful to them for all they have done and there is no doubt in my mind this project could not have got to where it has without Tidal’s commitment, enthusiasm and hard work. Thank you Tidal!
