"I have used KBS for a few smaller jobs before, and this time I decided to do a larger project - a complete roof replacement and skylight installation. I knew they were honest and dedicated, so it was an easy decision to hire them. They did not disappoint, and I am very happy with the results. Kris and his team are fantastic, as is their office manager, David, who is always responsive and very reliable. The scaffolding team they hired was also fantastic. Highly recommend KBS."

"I had some loose tiles on my roof that needed replacing, and the whole experience was fantastic. The team were friendly, professional, and kept everything clean and tidy while they worked. They communicated clearly throughout the process, which I really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing roofing work"

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.
