"I had previously had problems obtaining planning permission. HK Home Architects and Construction made the whole process very smooth and communicated with me during the whole process."
"Kelvin was recommended by our builder for our kitchen extension in Norbiton KT1, and we’re extremely pleased with the service he provided. He delivered a full design plan for the ground floor and extension, and was supportive and responsive throughout the process. He guided us through building control and addressed all questions promptly. His team was flexible with updates, and the engineers he recommended were excellent. The final design is modern, safe, and well thought-out. We highly recommend working with Kelvin—professional, efficient, and reliable."

"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.
