Highlights
"Rob is a perfectionist and would trust to rebuild any roof."
"From the initial meeting these guys gave me confidence that they fully understood the job & would deliver without over-egging it. On the day they were very pleasant & easy to deal with as well as efficient, highly competent & communicative. They even fully cleaned up afterward & you’d never know that they’d been there. I plan to use them for another roof fairly soon as a result. I highly recommend them."
"Rob and his colleague kept us informed about what they were doing and what needed doing. Very punctual and very professional. Definitely knew there stuff when it comes to roofing."

"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.
