Highlights
"I cannot recommend them high enough. The work was carried out to more than we expected. They were polite, cleared after themselves. A real pleasure. I am quite sinical about getting trades people that look after you rather than themselves and so it is refreshing when you find someone you can trust. As I say, cannot recommend them highly enough."
"Very friendly and efficient service Thankyou for responding quickly and carrying out a great job"
"J&,L Roofing and Guttering recently did a big back roof repair - replaced all felt and batons, replaced the valley, relaid tiles and ridges, replaced facia, repainted soffits, and replaced some guttering. I am very pleased with the work and service James and his team has provided, from the initial investigation, job quote and finished repairs. James stuck to the job quote even if additional roof components needed replacing. Everyone was friendly, polite, efficient, and patient. They were prompt, started with the job straight away, always cleared up. The schedule was met. Will use them again."

"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.
