Thanks to Pete Hofmann and the rest of the Miloco team for taking my project on . I fired over so many questions during the design process and always felt I was in safe hands.
I wanted a space that would allow me to work with music to picture, on tight deadlines, so everything needed to be to hand and patched in and ready to go at all times. I also wanted an inspiring, creative space that would allow me to experiment more deeply on my albums.
Miloco have achieved this, both with the overall design and the bespoke studio furniture, which looks amazing and has lots of fine little touches that give a sense of real quality.
"Miloco Builds did an outstanding job on the refurbishment of Livingston Studio 1. It was a complicated job and involved moving an entire studio from Liverpool to London and then recommissioning all the equipment into a completely new environment. The attention to detail on both the aesthetics and the functionality of the studio, as well as the speed at which the whole project was completed blew me away and I couldn't be happier with the results" - Mike Crossey (Producer)
"Miloco Builds made it easy from beginning to end. From the overall scheme to the tiniest detail, everything was looked after and it felt like there was a real passion in getting it to be best it could be." - Nick Hodgson
“After a brief design chat, Miloco had it built to a great standard in no time adding useful tweaks and adjustments along the way.” Danton Supple (Producer)
”We are really pleased with the way the studio has turned out – it has exceeded expectations and has been in continuous use. All our artists that have used the studio love working there, the Miloco team did a great job for us.” Frank Presland (CEO of Rocket)
"Miloco Builds are an incredibly professional team of people. They have done a brilliant job on our studio, finishing on time and within budget. The communication and work done was excellent in all aspects of the process, from design through to the finishing touches. Would highly recommend them!"
(Anne Carruthers, studio manager)
"Miloco redesigned the interior of my studio so that it looks modern, & the acoustic treatment is superb for mixing & recording. Thank you" Andy Whitmore
"Miloco Builds created two beautiful studios for SNK and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish they were a pleasure to work with, putting together a highly skilled team that filled us with confidence. They were efficient, on time, on budget and at the end of the day, produced fantastic results." Seb Juliver (Managing Director)
“The Miloco team did excellent work in Dock Street Studios. Their combination of both artistic vision, and extensive studio building experience made the whole process a joy to be involved in. Every element of the build was done to extremely high standards, and the guys on-site were very accommodating to any last minute changes. The sound of the room really deserves its own paragraph, but essentially Nick Whitaker has done (as expected) an awesome job, and turned an awful-sounding room into a great one. Can’t wait to get them onto the control room.” Sholto Radcliffe
"From our initial enquiry to the end of the job, the team at MIloco were friendly, flexible and professional. Their vast experience meant we were always understood, and together we found solutions to our studio build aspirations. We also had a tight turn around to ensure we didn’t loose studio time, and Miloco planned a schedule that went without a hitch.
We were wanting the expertise and bespoke craftsmanship from the best…. and we got it. We are thrilled with the work. Thank you to Peter, Pete, Paul, Nick Finn, Johnny and the team.”
"A huge thank-you to Pete and the rest of the Miloco team for creating such a stunning space for us. We realise that working around our big office build couldn’t have been easy, especially with constantly changing goal posts, but with limitless patience, ingenuity, foresight and communication, Miloco Builds have provided us with a space that not only looks beautiful, but sounds better than we could ever had hoped for." - David Rodger
“Miloco Builds were great for us. They understood what I consider the most important aspects which are quality, time schedule and budget and I was incredibly pleased with the results and the ease of it all.” Alan Moulder (Producer / Mixer)
“We love our studio that Miloco built for us. They did everything we wanted and had some great ideas that we hadn’t thought of. Pete and Mickey were very helpful and kept to a tight budget without cutting corners. Highly recommended.” Peter Mayes (Artist / Producer)
"Miloco Builds run a tight ship. The ability to also use the control room as a booth is a great asset and the job ran very smoothly and on budget. It's great to have builders who understand how records are made and hence are able to come up with practical solutions during the building process." Ben Hiller, producer /engineer
"The Miloco team did excellent work in Dock Street Studios. Their combination of both artistic vision, and extensive studio building experience made the whole process a joy to be involved in. The Miloco Builds Team have, over the course of two builds, turned a dingy basement complex into the best acoustic environment I’ve had the good fortune to work in. Besides being a pleasure to deal with, they were always willing to go above and beyond what would be traditionally expected of a studio builder in order to make both the Control room and the Live room truly bespoke to our needs."
"Miloco Builds created two beautiful studios for SNK and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

"The end result is a unique space with soul, character and an exciting life ahead.”
Tom Panton, Sonos
"Miloco were superb to work with. Pete Hoffman from the outset showed great interest and enthusiasm for what we wanted to create. He empathised with the unique demands that a foley studio presented. He listened and implemented my ideas and wishes to create a stunning sounding room. Pete Harris and his build team worked tirelessly and efficiently to get the job done on time and to the highest of standards. Thanks to all the team." - Barnaby Smyth, Feet First Sound.
"What can I say? Pete and the Miloco Builds team brilliantly balanced the band's unswerving demand for audio excellence with an innovative interior design brief from Lee Associates. It looks amazing. Cheers guys." Steve Heaver, Involved Management
"It was no mean feat for Pete and his team to run a building site within a building site, but they did a marvellous job with excellent results."
Simon Campbell, Technical Manager, Abbey Road Studios
“It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Pete Hofmann and the rest of the team at Miloco Builds. From the very first site visit to the design process, through construction and into completion, they have been enthusiastic, adaptable and considerate in their work. We set out to build a creative hub with a multi-use layout in which we’d make albums, run our record label and host writing sessions for our publishing company. Pete took this all on board and has more than delivered on what we could have hoped for within the empty shed of a building that we initially presented. The attention to detail throughout the process has blown us away and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services to anyone looking to build a great studio. We’re so happy with how One Eyed Jack’s has turned out and are incredibly excited to start working here."
Dan Smith, Bastille
"We needed a new recording room with enough space for a band to play together, great acoustics for recording, and extremely effective sound-proofing to avoid problems with neighbours. Miloco Builds came to the rescue and did an amazing job." Frank Pike (School Manager, LSS)
"Miloco were the perfect partner on our new studio project. They quickly understood the look and feel we wanted and provided several creative options. They were attentive to all the details and final finish. The build itself was an exciting, thorough process and was completed on time. They sourced and installed the recording equipment and worked with our engineer to get it all running perfectly. We’re really delighted with the results and have had incredibly positive feedback from everyone who has worked in them."
Laurence Howell, Audible director of editorial and marketing
“I was absolutely delighted with the design and build of my new studio room that Miloco Builds constructed for me at the Miloco HQ in London. Pete Hofmann and his team liaised carefully with me throughout the studio construction to make sure the details I required to make the room work for me were in place and their advice regarding the design was invaluable too. I recommend them highly!” Stephen Street (Producer)
