Highlights
"My roof was heavily damaged in a recent storm. The team responded quickly, did a great job and charged a fair price. Highly recommend."
"Breward recommended by a friend who could not fit in the job, quoted for whole roof with front being a conservation area roof with patterned slate. Punctual, scaffolding up in time for the job to start, couple of days cold weathered off (understandable), the job was completed within timescale and the scaffolding removal booked for 2 days after!! Trustworthy, communicated well, lovely team and coming up for 4 GENERATIONS of breward roofing!!! What was a daunting thought beforehand became a breeze!! Highly recommended"
"They were prompt answers messages and they completed my tile repair really fast"

"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.
