Highlights
"Had a leaking chimney which needed repointing, very prompt in coming, very efficient and professional. Identified that ridge tiles needed repair which was also done at same time."
"My chimney appeared to have a recent leak but it must have been leaking for a while as it was hiding long-term problems in the loft! There was la lot of previously unseen damage to address, which Jesse Richards and his team put right. Apart from re-leading the chimney, they replaced rotting timbers, battens and felting, fascia board, replaced cracked tiles and many other things. Jesse Richards and his team were respectful, friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, skilful, and kept me updated on each stage of the work. It rained most of the week but they carried on relentlessly. Highly recommended!"
"Good experience with Richards Roofing would highly recommend them. Competitive pricing efficient and knowledgeable. Fitted eaves trays and vent tiles to our bungalow, we’re on time and completed the job on the day stated thank you."

"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.
