Highlights
"Louis and his hardworking professional team completed the job very quickly despite a number of unforeseen issues that arose which they overcame. We couldn't be more happy with the result as we now have a new staircase plus extra useable space upstairs as well as a nursery for our baby. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of having a loft conversion done!"
"Absolutely fantastic work carried out. We had a existing wall remover and the kitchen replaced. The work was carried out within the allocated time. Communication was to the upmost and the work completed is fantastic."
"Louis, Chris and Ben were working at my neighbours house so I asked them to give me a quote for a new kitchen. I showed them what I liked and they organised everything from there, it was seamless from the start, I knew exactly what was going on and I got to see a full design of my open plan kitchen prior to starting so I could make a couple of changes. Really happy with my new kitchen and the team I chose to complete it. Thanks guys!"

"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.
