Highlights
"From the first contact Tony was excellent , easy to talk to ,understood problems when explained to, have confidence he knew what he was doing . Kept me informed at all times giving dates that work would start , any set backs because of problems (weather being the only one ,rain ). Met Joe on first day of work and what a great ,lovely guy . The work was excellent and they have done a brilliant job ,Joe even repaired guttering (which was not part of job quote ) for me at no extra cost . What a pleasure to meet 2 nice guys and have a professional and excellent job done .Very pleased with work"
"After arranging for a well known local roofing firm to give me a quote to undertake some work at my home, and promptly hearing absolutely nothing for over two weeks after their inspection, I contacted R&L Roofing Contractors. Tony got a quote to me the next day but said they were busy for 8 to 9 weeks. I waited and I'm glad I did. The job they did for me was done professionally, quickly, looked great and the place was virtually spotless after they had finished. No blaring radio's, no bad language and no mess, I would recommend Tony and Joe to anyone without hesitation."
"Given a detailed quote and schedule of proposed works, price was very reasonable. arrived when said and worked through each day and job was completed on time. Friendly and kept informed throughout,"

"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.
