A Family-Run Business Since 1983

Our History

Started by Ranjit Rai in 1983, R. R. Architectural Consultancy was originally based in Kent, and grew to be well respected in the area. Following relocation to Milton Keynes in 2002, the business continued to thrive. In 2017, Ranjit retired but the business kept going, rebranded as Hamilton design + surveying, and headed by Ranjit's daughter Meena, and her husband, Simon. 
Due to ongoing growth, and a desire to emphasise the family-run nature of our company, we became Hamilton Rai Ltd. in 2020.

And... in case you are wondering, Rai is pronounced 'Rye'​

Our Aims

​
As a result our goal is simple: To provide a great service to our clients.

A Passion for Design | Experience | Excellent Communication | Value for Money | Open and Honest
