Highlights
"Orniston Renovations are a great outfit to do business with. They took my concept ideas, provided wholesome and sound advice, guided me through what was required and managed my expectations. The final result is an excellent engineered solution, which flows and drains, and is tiled to perfection. I long expect a future Sir Tony Robinson to unearth these tiles in AD2750 long after Putin's nuclear winter has ended against the West."
"Tom is incredibly professional and communicated really well before and during the job. We are very impressed by his approach, high level of detail and standard that he worked to."
"We bought our first home this summer and whole thing needed ripping out and reffitin and we only had 6 weeks to do it! Not having much prior knowledge With these sorts of projects Tom offered lots of friendly advice for us aswell as a collection of great contacts. He took care of the kitchen, bathroom , downstairs toilet and they are perfect. He's a very skilled stone mason with an excellent eye for detail. Our beautiful custom fit quartz work tops are exemplary. We cannot fault Tom's work he's an all round good egg. We would not have such a lovely home like this without all of his hard work."

Smart 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.
