Highlights
"Jake came out at short notice to fix a broken tile. He also took time to clean out my gutters whilst he was up there. Will definitely use again , thanks Jake 👍🏻"
"Jake and his team were excellent and I would reccomend them and will use them again. I wanted my chimneys capped (and some bird boxes installed) on a roof that is high, steeply-angled and with decorative tiling that removed some options for access. Jake used a drone to put together photos for 2 quotes based on different approaches. In the end we also had some flaunching redone and some repointing. There was always good communication in advance, on the day and afterwards, with helpful photos and videos. Jake was informative and flexible on the various options. The scaffolders he used were"
"Arrived on time, received a txt beforehand. Very impressed with the clever use of a drone to take pictures of problems on the roof. This method put me at ease as living in a EOT Victorian house the use of a ladder would be extremely dangerous. Photos sent directly to my phone. Findings and options of repair were discussed. Quote received a few days later which has been accepted. Excellent communication and professional service. Would highly recommend."

"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.
