Highlights
"Very pleased. They did a great job with the gutter fix and the chimney repointing. Went above and beyond, very polite, reliable and tidy."
"Following a great experience employing Alfie and son to repoint a chimney and clean out gutters to my house, I appointed AC to carrryout exterior redecs and repairs to my son’s first floor maisonette. AC quoted a fair price and completed the work expeditiously and to a good standard."
"Alfie and his son did a brilliant job sanding down and repainting my fascias, soffits and metal downpipes. They were really thorough and the end result was excellent. Most importantly they were just really nice people and a joy to deal with. I would definitely recommend them."

"Architect" is a title protected by law - only people on the official Architects Register (held by ARB) may use it. Confirm they're on it before you commission a design.
Check the Architects RegisterSmart checks
Before you hire an architect
Only someone on the Architects Registration Board (ARB) register may legally call themselves an 'architect' in the UK — ask for their ARB number and check it free at arb.org.uk. An 'architectural designer' or 'technologist' is a different, unregistered role (often capable, but not the same protection).
Agree how they charge before any work starts — a percentage of the build cost, a fixed fee, or an hourly rate — and exactly which stages it covers (concept design, planning application, building-regulations drawings, work on site), so there are no surprises later.
Confirm what they will actually handle versus what is excluded — the planning application, the building-control drawings, and whether they will administer the builder's contract on site — and get it, and a portfolio of similar projects, in writing.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
