Highlights
"Mike is an old school tradesman that does exactly what it says on his tin. friendly approach extremely knowledgeable made quick work of the quote and arrived and completed all within the agreed timeliness. a great professional trust worthy team, that they have already quoted for 3 further jobs within my property and have been given them. if all trades people had Mike's approach the world would be a better place."
"I used Checkatrade to find someone to skim our second bedroom walls and received three similar quotes. Mike responded first, asked for photos, and we quickly agreed on the job and date. He arrived on time with a colleague, protected the room properly, and completed the work in half a day to a high standard. He guaranteed the job and invited me to call with any issues. Highly recommended."
"First time using Checkatrade , very happy will definitely use again. Showed up on time suggested a different option on plastering the ceiling worked out perfectly and even looks better good quality of work and very very clean."

"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.
